Scientific paper

The authors have obtained a first, direct estimate of galactic [C II] 157 μm, fine-structure emission. At a galactic longitude of 8°, the peak power observed in a 7arcmin×7arcmin field is ≡5×10-9 W cm-2 sr-1. The method used to detect this radiation involved chopping against the cold side of the Moon.
