GLAST Name Form

GLAST Name Form
Welcome to the GLAST naming page! It is YOUR turn to suggest a name for NASA's newest astronomical observatory.

Before the latest chapter in the search begins for supermassive black holes, new laws of physics and the mysterious dark matter, you’ll have the historic chance to help name the satellite that makes it all possible. This unique opportunity is open to the public across the globe. Now, YOU may be the one to offer the name which will be given to the Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST) after its launch in 2008. GLAST is NASA’s next generation gamma-ray mission, designed to explore the most extreme phenomena in our Universe and probe energy regimes far beyond anything possible on Earth.

NASA's GLAST mission is an astrophysics and particle physics partnership, developed in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy, along with important contributions from academic institutions and partners in France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Sweden, and the U.S.

No longer is NASA limiting the naming of satellites to important scientists (but they are not excluded, either). The search has begun for popular names that will engage the public in GLAST’s mission and make it a household name.
