SUMMARY:The first year of the Fermi Large Area Telescope in space\, NP
 AC (Nuclear/Particle/Astro/Cosmo) Forum\, Markus Ackermann
DESCRIPTION:Astrophysical results obtained by the Fermi Large Area tel
 escope<br>
\nmission in the first year of its mission are presented. I
 n its first year the LAT has detected more than 10 million gamma-rays 
 above 100 MeV and more than 1000 point sources\, many of which were st
 udied individually. These studies cover a wide range of astrophysical 
 objects\, like  AGN\, GRB\, Starburst Galaxies\, Pulsars\, their Nebul
 ae and Supernova Remnants.  Besides individual objects\, the propertie
 s of the diffuse emission from our own galaxy and beyond have been ana
 lyzed\, yielding<br>
\nnew insights into the propagation of cosmic ray
 s and the nature of the extragalactic diffuse emission.
