The Pierre Auger Observatory is now ~80% completed with all of the fluorescence
detectors and 1300 tanks in operation. The exposure accumulated since January 2004
is ~ 5000 km^2 sr yr, approximately 3 times that reached by AGASA and about twice the
exposure of HiRes. The hybrid nature of the detector and unparalleled attention to
systematic uncertainties has allowed an accurate measurement o

The past decade has seen enormous progress in the sensitivity TeV gamma-ray
survey instruments. With the ability to continuously observe 2sr of the sky,
survey instruments hold the promise of fully exploring the transient
high-energy universe. After decades of roaming in the desert, survey
instruments are now making detailed measurements of the Galactic diffuse
gamma-ray emission and discov

heliosphere that now extends to high solar latitudes and to d
