GLAST: Gamma Ray Large Area Space Telescope

This GLAST Mission is part of NASA's Office of Space and Science Strategic Plan, with launch anticipated in 2006. GLAST is a next generation high-energy gamma-ray observatory designed for making observations of celestial gamma-ray sources in the energy band extending from 10 MeV to more than 100 GeV. This provides a first point of contact for the GLAST Large Area Telescope (LAT), the high-energy gamma-ray instrument on GLAST. From here it is possible to reach public information sites, project management information, and web pages of the LAT subsystems. The GLAST project is funded in the United States by NASA and the Department of Energy and by government agencies in France, Italy, Japan, and Sweden.
