This view from NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is the deepest and best-resolved portrait of the gamma-ray sky to date. The image shows how the sky appears at energies more than 150 million ...
NASA's Fermi Space Telescope has failed to see gamma rays from a nearby supernova that should be created when it generates the high-energy cosmic rays that bombard Earth in their trillions.
Deep within the Milky Way’s core, researchers have uncovered cold gas clouds racing through a superheated galactic wind.
Astronomers analyzing 13 years of data from NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope have found an unexpected and as yet unexplained feature outside of our galaxy. January 11, 2024. 2.
NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope "detected none of the high-energy gamma-ray light" from a nearby supernova. NASA explains. Credit: NASA Goddard Space Flight Center ...
NASA announced today that GLAST has been renamed the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The new name honors Enrico Fermi (1901-1954), a pioneer in high-energy physics. “Fermi was the first to suggest ...
Today, Fermi has identified more than 300 of them. An international team of experts combed through a decade of Fermi data in search of something specific: a gamma-ray eclipse.
Since 2008, the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has captured cosmic wonders that would otherwise be hidden from human eyes. Galaxy Centaurus A hosts an enormous black hole dining on nearby matter.
Images Nearby galaxies undergoing a furious pace of star formation also emit lots of gamma rays, say astronomers using NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Two so-called “starburst&#… ...
The team combined 13 years of gamma ray data from NASA's Fermi Large Area Telescope to analyze the cosmic gamma-ray background. The researchers found a gamma-ray dipole, but its peak was located ...
NASA announced in February 2008 that it was holding a contest to re-name its Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope, or GLAST. The new name—Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope—was announced by NASA ...
Pulsars are some of the most extreme and fascinating objects in the universe, and NASA's Fermi Space Telescope has just unlocked a new way to study them.
