An X- and gamma-ray telescope employing a coded aperture imaging technique is being developed to observe southern sky sources in the energy range of 40 KeV to 8 MeV with an angular resolution of approximately 20 arc min. The payload to be flown at 40 km altitude on board a stratospheric balloon will utilize a stabilized platform. The technical and scientific aspects of the experiment are discussed.
