Scientific paper

Results from a high resolution, ultraviolet study of interstellar gas situated away from the plane of our Galaxy, using the nuclei of Seyfert galaxies MKn 509 and F9 as background probes, are presented. In these directions, low velocity galactic gas as well as two extragalactic clouds, one probably associated with the Magellanic Stream and the other with Mkn 509, were detected. These data combined with results from other lines of sight show that the ultraviolet species extend about 10 kpc from the plane, assuming the high latitude gas corotates with the galactic disk.
