, - The BATSE experiment on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory is providing new data on the distribution of gamma-ray bursts. The initial set of observations of over 260 gamma-ray bursts detected in the first ten months of operation shows an isotropic distribution on the sky coupled with an intensity distribution that indicates a spatial confinement. The large area detectors also monitor a large fraction of the sky to monitor variations of known hard X-ray sources and search for transients. Pulsing sources are routinely observed both by temporal analysis on the ground and by on-board folding of data. Examples of observations from the first year of BATSE operations are shown.
