The aim of the MONS (Measuring Oscillations in Nearby Stars) project is to use observations of stellar oscillations to perform an asteroseismic analysis of stellar interiors. We expect to obtain high precision oscillation measurements on a sample of 20 bright stars as well as oscillation data at a slightly lower level of precision, but on a larger sample of bright stars. MONS will be launched on the Danish Rømer satellite in mid 2005.
