WSV: What is GLAST?


This week’s Weekly Science Video comes courtesy NASA. This is the second in a series produced to educate people about GLAST, the Gamma-Ray Large Area Space Telescope, which is due to launch on June 5.

This video discusses gamma-rays, which I’ve discussed before in the gamma-ray burst context.

This video was brought to my attention by Phil Plait, who’s the first talking head in the video.
