Formerly known as GLAST, NASA presented last week the first images from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (FGST -not the catchiest acronym). There are really incredible, as you can see here, showing diffuse gamma-ray emission from the Milky Way as well as pulsed gamma-ray emission from the Vela pulsar, which you can watch here. To listen to this telecom, go here. Exciting stuff! Definitely a great beginning for GLAST (oops, Fermi).
