An impressive timelapse from NASA using the 'Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope'
NASA's Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope was launched in 2008 and has been recording gamma-ray sources in the universe ever since. The American space agency collected the data and created an impressive film in the form of time-lapse, a unique tour of the vast universe that comes to life before our eyes.
It is impossible for man, with the naked eye, to see most of the light that exists outside our planet. But thanks to telescope technology, anything is possible.
NASA's Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope, which was launched in 2008 and has been recording gamma-ray sources in the universe since then, with the proper processing provided unique shots.

γ-rays belong to the electromagnetic spectrum. They are the rays with the highest frequency, therefore also per photon energy of the spectrum. They are extremely dangerous as they break down cell substances and mutate DNA causing death to almost all organisms exposed to it.
They come from energetic sources such as supernova remnants, neutron stars and quasars.
The US space agency decided to compile a timelapse of the data collected by Fermi (2008-2022) giving us the opportunity to observe the sky if we had c-ray vision.
The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is an astrophysics and particle physics partnership operated by Goddard. It was developed in collaboration with the US Department of Energy, with significant contributions from academic institutions and partners in France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Sweden and the United States.
