Scientific paper

In the period leading up to the end of the century a number of space-borne gamma-ray telescopes are expected to be operational. It should be an exciting era for the high energy astrophysicist, since these missions have the corporate capacity to advance this very fundamental branch of observational astronomy from the early exploratory phase to a level in which highly sophisticated and detailed measurements are possible on large numbers and a wide variety of astronomical objects. From past experience, when similar advances have been made in a 'new' waveband, the results have led to important discoveries and a more profound understanding of the universe. Gamma-ray astronomy, with its intimate connection to nuclear and particle processes, is unlikely to be different.
