Fermi large area telescope highlights

Successfully launched in June 2008, the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, formerly named GLAST, has been observing the high-energy gamma-ray sky with unprecedented sensitivity in the 20 MeV–300 GeV energy range and electrons + positrons in the 7 GeV–1 TeV range, opening a new observational window on a wide variety of astrophysical objects.
