The Gamma Ray Observatory
Abstract
The status and some results of the Gamma Ray Observatory are reported with attention given to the full-sky survey undertaken during its mission. Intense high-energy gamma-ray emission is reported from the object 3C 279, and the facility is said to observe one gamma-ray burst per day. The Gamma Ray Observatory is responsible for producing the first image ever taken of a gamma-ray burst as well as observing intense nuclear and positron-annihilation gamma-ray lines and neutrons from several large solar flares.
