Abstract
BL Lacertae objects are active galactic nuclei with weak, sometimes undetectable, optical line emission and strong variability in total intensity and linear polarization over a broad range of wavelengths from ultraviolet to radio. It is believed that synchrotron radiation is the dominant emission mechanism virtually throughout the spectrum. Their strong linear polarization makes BL Lac objects prime targets for space VLBI polarization observations.
