                                    The Hubble Space Telescope has provided the first clear evidence for
weaker winds of metal-poor massive stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud,
confirming theoretical predictions of the metallicity dependence of
mass-loss rates and wind terminal velocities. For lower luminosity
O-type stars however, derived mass-loss rates are orders of magnitude
lower than predicted, and are at present unexplained.
