WHAT PREVIOUS MISSIONS DOES GLAST CONTINUE AND IMPROVE UPON?

0

GLAST follows in the footsteps of NASA’s Compton Gamma-ray Observatory (CGRO) EGRET and BATSE instruments, which were operational between 1991 and 1999. GLAST will have a field of view and sky survey twice as large as that of the CGRO, and a sensitivity more than 30 times greater than Compton ‘s EGRET instrument. GLAST will also improve upon the BATSE instrument.
