Context.PG 1159-035 is the prototype of the PG 1159 spectral class which consists of extremely hot hydrogen-deficient (pre-) white dwarfs. It is also the prototype of the GW Vir variables, which are non-radial g-mode pulsators. The study of PG 1159 stars reveals insight into stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis during AGB and post-AGB phases.
