WASHINGTON -- NASA will hold a media teleconference at 2:30 p.m. EST on Tuesday, Nov. 9, to discuss a new discovery by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Gamma rays are the highest-energy form of light. The soon-to-be published findings include the discovery of enormous but previously unrecognized "gamma-ray bubbles" centered in the Milky Way.
Teleconference panelists are:
- Jon Morse, director, Astrophysics Division, NASA Headquarters in Washington
- Julie McEnery, Fermi project scientist, NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.
- Doug Finkbeiner, associate professor of astronomy, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Mass.
- Simona Murgia, Fermi research associate, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park, Calif.
- David Spergel, astrophysicist, Princeton University, Princeton, N.J.
For dial-in information, journalists should e-mail their name, media affiliation and telephone number to Trent Perrotto at trent.j.perrotto@nasa.gov.
Audio of the teleconference will be streamed live on NASA's website at:
