Map the distribution of hot gas in the Milky Way and determine whether it fills an extended halo or the halo is compact with no contribution to the total mass of the galaxy. Measure soft X-ray emissions from the halo of our Milky Way galaxy. Map O VII and O VIII line emission to look at Milky Way to see if we have a massive, extended, hot halo. Amptek X?ray detectors. Measure the oxygen emission in 400 fields over 90% of the sky. Study solar wind charge exchange emission to remove uncertainty on the oxygen line emission measurements.
