The Large Area Telescope (LAT), one of two instruments on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (formerly GLAST, launched June 11, 2008), has observed an increase in flux from a gamma-ray source in the Galactic Plane consistent with the location of 3EG J0903-3531 (R. Hartman et al. 1999, ApJS, 123, 79) starting on 6 October 2008. The preliminary LAT position is J2000.0: RA=136.25 deg, DEC=-35.45 deg (l=259.59 deg, b=+7.73 deg) with an error circle radius 0.08 deg (statistical).
