STACEE, the Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment, is a gamma ray detector located near Albuquerque, New Mexico. Observations with STACEE began in October 2001 and concluded in June 2007. Gamma rays have been observed from objects such as the Crab Nebula, a supernova remnant, and Markarian 421, a blazar. The detector is operated in consortium with several universities, including McGill University, Case Western Reserve University, UCLA, UCSC, Columbia University, and the University of Alberta.
