This source is hiding behind our Galaxy at a distance of ~18 Mpc, located at a galactic latitide of 0 degrees. ... As we look towards longer wavelengths, 60 micron, to try and penetrate the Galactic Plane, we still see confusion from galactic sources. ... If the image seems some what confusing that is because the MOST is a continuum radio telescope and when it looks in the direction of our Galaxy it detects radiation from sources within our Galaxy and from sources that may lie behind our Galaxy. ...
