Description Galactic abundances trace the processing of primordial elements by
stars from the birth of the Milky Way to the present day. HII
regions, because of their short lifetimes, are ideal targets for
abundance determinations because they sample the current state of the
interstellar medium. We propose to observe the [OIII], [NIII], and
[NII] lines of 31 well-studied Galactic HII regions with the PACS
spectrometer to derive the oxygen and nitrogen abundances. We hope to
address two long-standing problems in Galactic abundance measurements:
1) abundances traced in the far-infrared show discrepancies with those
in the optical, and 2) HII region electron temperatures derived from
radio observations, which can be used as a proxy for metallicity, are
not well calibrated with abundance measurements.

Mission Description Herschel was launched on 14 May 2009! It is the fourth 'cornerstone' mission in the ESA science programme. With a 3.5 m Cassegrain telescope it is the largest space telescope ever launched. It is performing photometry and spectroscopy in approximately the 55-671 µm range, bridging the gap between earlier infrared space missions and groundbased facilities.
