During the last decade the exploration of the sky in the light of gamma rays has begun by means of satellite- and balloon-borne instruments. Like in other ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum the Milky Way clearly stands out against the rest of the sphere. Part of the galactic γ-ray emission is due to discrete sources, part is diffuse in origin and is produced in interstellar space. Some of the discrete γ-ray sources are radio pulsars, the nature of the other sources is still unknown. The intensity distribution of the diffuse galactic γ-ray component is consistent with a decrease of the cosmic-ray intensity towards the outer part of the galaxy. The identification of the cosmic-ray sources will be one of the main objectives of the next generation of γ-ray telescopes.
