Extract
What is the general morphology of the diffuse interstellar medium? Is it mostly uniform or clumpy? Are the clumps mostly in the form of spheroidal clouds, sinuous filaments, extended sheets, or discrete shells? And do the clumps or the voids better define the overall structure? By addressing these morphological questions, one can better constrain the dynamical processes that are most responsible for shaping and energizing the ISM.
