Scientific paper

The scientific rationale of the ARGO experiment, which involves the observation of diffuse radiation in the wavelength range between 2 mm and 300 microns at angular scales between 10 arcmin and 5 deg using a balloon-borne millimeter and submillimeter telescope, is examined. Results obtained with during the 1989 flight are summarized, and improvements to the new payload, scheduled to be flown in 1993, are discussed. The observations of ARGO will be relevant to the study of both the interstellar medium and the evolution of cosmological objects.
