The spiral structure of our Galaxy has for many years been mapped by radio observations of the hydrogen 21-cm line. Similar optical observations are severely influenced by the absorbing interstellar matter in the plane of the Milky Way and we know comparatively little about the distribution of stars beyond some kiloparsecs. However, investigations of faint (and therefore mainly distant) hot OB stars in the direction of the Carina spiral arm now give a more accurate picture of this feature. Dr. Stig Wramdemark of the Lund Observatory in Sweden last year published the results of earlier observations at La Silla. He here gives an up-to-date summary of his latest observations:
