Abstract

Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (FGST) has been making many exciting discoveries in astrophysics since its launch in June 2008. One main motivation for the Fermi/GLAST LAT proposal in early 1990s was to promote research in particle astrophysics through close collaboration between particle physics and astrophysics communities. We have accomplished this goal by bring the two communities into one collaboration and by winning funds from their respective funding agencies. The success in finding many exciting phenomena and making high precision measurements have brought many new challenges in interpreting on fundamental physics. I will select a few such discoveries and explain the challenges.
