Abstract
In this review I will give an overview of astrophysics missions that used rockets, stratospheric balloons and satellites. I will give particular emphasis to those missions that contributed to my
scientific results.
Of course I do not claim to be exhaustive both for reasons of space and especially my limited knowledge. However, from this overview of results from multi-frequency measurements carried out by space and ground experiments, my contribution to the knowledge of high-energy cosmic sources can be deduced. I would like also to highlight the use of WISDOM in PHYSICS, in addition, obviously, to its knowledge.
The hope is to be useful to young people so that they learn away of doing research that is apparently anomalous, but effective.
