More magic in gamma ray astronomy

[Rick]

The title of largest gamma-ray telescope has passed back to the Major Atmospheric Gamma-ray Imaging Cerenkov facility on the island of Palma.

It gets the accolade as the second Magic telescope collects its first light on 25 April.

Gamma-ray radiation is emitted by the most distant, earliest galaxies and the most violent stellar processes.
