Scientific paper

The scientific rationale behind the use of a smallsized (30 cm) balloon telescope for wide-beam (11 arc minutes) spectroscopic observations in the far infrared, particularly of the C II line at 157.7 microns is discussed. The technical details of the experiment are summarized. Measurements of W3 performed during a flight in 1987 are reported. The results are shown to be in agreement with published results obtained using the Lear Jet. The prospects of future observations are discussed.
