Scientific paper

The Large Area Telescope (LAT), one of two instruments on the Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST) (launched June 11, 2008), which is still in its post-launch commissioning and checkout phase has been monitoring extraordinarily high flux from the gamma-ray blazar 3C 454.3 since June 28, 2008. This confirms the bright state of the source reported by AGILE (see ATel #1592) and by the optical-to-radio observers of the GASP-WEBT Project (ATel #1625).
