INTEGRAL (International Gamma Ray Astrophysics Laboratory) will be the follow up on the successful high energy missions CGRO and GRANAT. The Scientific goal of INTEGRAL is to address the fine spectroscopy with imaging and accurate positioning of celestial X-ray emission as well as large scale diffuse emission studies. These achievement will be possible by means of a high spectral resolution Spectrometer (SPI) and a high angular resolution Imager (IBIS) supplemented by an X-ray monitor and an Optical Monitoring Camera. INTEGRAL, with 2 years nominal lifetime possibly extended to 5 years, will be an observatory-class mission. The observing time will be divided into a General Programme, open to the scientific community with scientific targets selected by a peer review committee, and a Core Programme which is guaranteed time for the INTEGRAL Science Working Team (ISWT).
