The OSER project (Optical Scintillation by Extraterrestrial Refractors)is proposed to search for scintillation Of extragalactic sourcesthrough the galactic – disk or halo – transparent H2 clouds,the last unknown baryonic structures.This project should allow one to detect column densitystochastic variations in cool Galactic molecular clouds of order of~ 3×10-5 g/cm2 per ~ 10 000 km transverse distance.
