Abstract
A probable sky map of the emission from a short-lived isotrope produced by massive stars is presented. The model is based on the nonaxisymmetric component of a dust distribution model developed to reproduce Galactic FIR emission. Features seen in COMPTEL observations are qualitatively reproduced.
