In this Paper, we will show that every basically disconnected space is a projective object in the category $Tych_{\sigma}$ of Tychonoff spaces and $_{\sigma}Z^{#}$ -irreducible maps and that if X is a space such that ${\Beta} {\Lambda} X={\Lambda} {\Beta} X$, then X has a projective cover in $Tych_{\sigma}$. Moreover, observing that for any weakly Linde1of space, ${\Lambda} X : {\Lambda} X\;{\longrightarrow}\;X$ is $_{\sigma}Z^{#}$-irreducible, we will show that the projective objects in $wLind_{\sigma}$/ of weakly Lindelof spaces and $_{\sigma}Z^{#}$-irreducible maps are precisely the basically disconnected spaces.
