Scientific paper

MAGIC is a Imaging Air Cherenkov telescope for VHE gamma-ray astronomy above 100 GeV. The fist cycle of observations with MAGIC has finished on May 2006. Beside other sources, a large number of galactic sources has been observed, both steady, such as SNRs and Pulsar Wind Nebulae, and variable sources, like microquasars and pulsars. Within the galactic program frame, MAGIC confirmed the TeV emission of 2 new Shell-type SNR, and the galactic center emission. More than 25 h have been dedicated to the unidentified HEGRA source TeV 2032+41. Moreover, MAGIC has observed one of the 20 known microquasars, namely LS I +61 303. A general overview of the most interesting results and their physics interpretation will be discussed.
