| Abstract: |
I review the current status of the AGILE Mission, its performance and timeline. For the first time, simultaneous monitoring of a large number of AGNs per pointing will be possible in the 30 MeV - 50 GeV and 10 - 40 keV energy bands, because of an excellent angular resolution and a large field of view (∼1/5 of the entire sky above 30 MeV). I also discuss some recent results on the possible AGILE contribution to the study of blazars in the gamma-ray and hard X-ray energy bands. |
