Integral's telescope possesses two imagers that can scan 20,000 to 10 million electrons, making it the most sensitive gamma-ray observatory ever launched. Astronomers expect Integral will be key in not only gamma-ray detections, but also in providing clues about the explosions from which these high-energy photons originated.
