The Large Area Telescope (LAT), one of the two instruments on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, previously reported a new gamma-ray flare from the direction of the Crab Nebula beginning on the 9th of April (ATel #3276). The increased emission was afterwards confirmed by the AGILE satellite (ATel #3282).The Crab Nebula is currently also being monitored by Chandra, which observed a bright knot east of the pulsar (ATel #3283), similar to previous observations in the September 2010 flare.
