Caption: Figure 6.

Science target distribution in equatorial coordinates on a Molleweide projection. The density is shown in HEALPix pixels (K. M. Górski et al. 2005) of approximately 1﹩\mathop{.}\limits^{\unicode{x000b0}}﹩ 8 on a side (NSIDE = 32 in HEALPix), and on a base-10 logarithmic scale in units of deg−2. R.A = 270° is at the center, R.A. = 0° is indicated by the solid line, and R.A. increases to the left. The number counts are dominated by Galactic Genesis targets. This distribution corresponds to the targets used in the iota-1 plan.
