NASA's latest orbital telescope his been launched aboard a Delta 2 rocket.
GLAST stands for Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope, and shows NASA's determination to try and make up words from the acronyms of their space craft!
Anyhow GLAST is trying to "explore the most extreme environments in the universe, searching for signs of new laws of physics, investigating the nature of dark matter, and many other things as well." The Telescope will study Gamma Ray bursts as they happen.
