Observatory SHALON ALATOO has just announced the TeV discovered of NGC 1275. The TeV catalogue of extragalactic sources contains three objects investigated by the SHALON-ALATOO Observatory at energy above 0.8 TeV: Markarian 421, Markarian 501 and NGC 1275, which was detected in TeV energy range by the observation on the telescope SHALON-1. The flux appears to be about that of the Crab Nebula (the intensity of Active Galactic Nucleus NGC 1275 at energy above 0.8 TeV with the flux Results obtained with the Mirror Cherenkov telescope SHALON-1 (mirror area more than 11 m2) point out that the Active Galactic Nuclei are main sources of gamma-quanta and probably cosmic rays of the high energy.
