Scientific paper

The atmospheric Cherenkov technique for gamma ray astronomy is shown to
be feasible using an ultraviolet (UV) camera on moon-lit-nights. The
Whipple telescope has been used as the reflector and the Crab Nebula as
the standard gamma ray beam. Our energy threshold is 1.2 TeV which is
compared to 0.4 TeV in the visible.
