Scientific paper

A search by means of galaxy counts for obscuring dust in an intergalactic hydrogen cloud near NGC 300 has resulted in the detection of a significant optical depth equal to 0.09 plus or minus 0.01. If the size and composition of the dust is similar to Galactic material, the implied dust to gas ratio is only about a factor of three smaller than the Galactic value.
