GLAST, the Gamma-ray Large Area Telescope, was launched into Earth orbit on June 11, 2008. Unlike the human eye, it can see gamma rays, a powerful form of light that is above the spectrum of visible light. GLAST will open new views of such celestial objects as gamma ray bursts, black holes, spinning neutron stars and jets of highly charged particles. It may even detect signs of dark matter. GLAST is a $690-million NASA project, a consortium of six countries and 14 U.S. research institutions. At Stanford, project members came from SLAC, a U.S. Energy Department lab; the Physics Department; the Hansen Experimental Physics Laboratory; and the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology.
