Description
The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope was launched into Earth orbit in June, 2008. The Large Area Telescope is the principal instrument on board of Fermi satellite, it has revealed the high energy cosmos over more than 5 decades in energy (~30 MeV - 300 GeV), across more than ten decades in time scales (100 μs to years). With more than three billions photons from the whole sky and beyond 6,000 detected sources, Fermi-LAT observations have been crucial to improving our understanding of particle acceleration and gamma-ray production in astrophysical sources.
In this talk we highlight some of the scientific achievements of the last years and we look towards what the next years could reveal. In particular we will focused in the time-domain astrophysics in the multi-wavelength and multi-messenger context.
