Scientific paper

The status of high energy gamma ray astronomy above 2 x 1011 eV is reviewed. The main physics motivations for gamma astronomy are summarized. The importance of satellite observations and combined studies is discussed. Usual observation techniques are overviewed. In this energy range earth bound detectors can be used. New large area detectors with an increase in sensitivity became operational. The performance and the preliminary results from the leading experiments are presented. An outlook for the next generation detectors is given.
