Access through your institution Buy or subscribe H.E.S.S. Collaboration _Astron. Astrophys_. 612, A1 (2018) The collaboration published their extensive Galactic plane survey and analysis in
14 papers within one issue of _Astronomy & Astrophysics_. The telescopes actually measure the Cherenkov radiation emitted by relativistic particles generated when the incoming gamma-rays
strike atmospheric molecules. In addition to identifying 16 previously unknown sources, the sky maps and catalogue of 78 sources are a valuable resource for characterizing the diverse type
and morphology of these extreme environments, which include pulsars and pulsar wind nebulae, supernova remnants, black holes, micro-quasars and active galactic nuclei. The completed H.E.S.S.
survey will shape the strategy for the next gamma-ray observatory, the Cherenkov Telescope Array, with more than 100 telescopes across two sites on different hemispheres. This is a preview
