Gamma-ray Bursts: Harvesting Knowledge From the Universe’s Most Powerful Explosions - NASA Science
The most powerful events in the known universe – gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) – are short-lived outbursts of the highest-energy light. They can erupt with a quintillion (a 10 followed by 18 zeros) times the luminosity of our Sun.science.nasa.gov

NASA’s Fermi Mission Nets 300 Gamma-Ray Pulsars … and Counting - NASA Science
A new catalog produced by a French-led international team of astronomers shows that NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has discovered 294 gamma-ray-emitting pulsars, while another 34 suspects await confirmation.science.nasa.gov
Thanks for this.
It's impossible to keep up with the rate of progress in the Sciences (as with the rest of society) nowadays. Judging by video this is a southern hemisphere location and so it turns out - Namibia. But if I'd heard of this project in 2004 - I'd long forgotten it. Fascinating.
