Description
We present Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) observations of the O VI {lambda}{lambda}1031.926, 1037.617 absorption lines associated with gas in and near the Milky Way, as detected in the spectra of a sample of 100 extragalactic targets and two distant halo stars. We combine data from several FUSE Science Team programs with guest observer data that were public before 2002 May 1. The sight lines cover most of the sky above Galactic latitude |b|>25{deg}, at lower latitude the ultraviolet extinction is usually too large for extragalactic observations.
