DESCRIPTION:The Fermi observatory is an international\, multi-agency satel
 lite mission that was launched by NASA in june 2008 and has since then bee
 n exploring the high energy gamma-ray sky from 20 MeV to more than 300 GeV
 . This largely unexplored region of the electro-magnetic spectrum is home 
 to emissions from the most energetic and mysterious objects in the cosmos\
 , like black holes\, active galactic nuclei\, rapidly spinning neutron sta
 rs\, supernovae remnants and gamma-ray bursters. Leveraging on the high in
 strument resolution and acceptance\, and on an outstanding operation effic
 iency\, the mission team has been able to record a remarkable variety of n
 ovel observations\, spanning from astronomy to particle astrophysics with 
 exciting implications on fundamental physics. At the same time the collabo
 ration is preparing to deliver photon data and analysis tools to the publi
 c starting from the second year of operations\, along with improved knowle
 dge of the instrument performance. In this talk I will review some of the 
 most interesting results obtained by Fermi in the field of gamma-ray astro
 physics\, and discuss the Fermi measurement of the primary cosmic ray elec
 tron spectrum between 20 GeV and 1 TeV.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/conferenc
