Difference between Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and Sagittarius A*

Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope vs. Sagittarius A*

The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (FGST), formerly called the Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST), is a space observatory being used to perform gamma-ray astronomy observations from low Earth orbit. Sagittarius A* (pronounced "Sagittarius A-star", standard abbreviation Sgr A*) is a bright and very compact astronomical radio source at the center of the Milky Way, near the border of the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpius.

Similarities between Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and Sagittarius A*

Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and Sagittarius A* have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): Active galactic nucleus, European Space Agency, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Gamma ray, General relativity, INTEGRAL, Light-year, Milky Way, Minute and second of arc, NASA, Sun, Supernova remnant, The Astrophysical Journal, Theory of relativity.

Active galactic nucleus

An active galactic nucleus (AGN) is a compact region at the center of a galaxy that has a much higher than normal luminosity over at least some portion—and possibly all—of the electromagnetic spectrum, with characteristics indicating that the excess luminosity is not produced by stars.
