It is interesting to note that the article actually mention this:
VERITAS is the latest stage in the evolution of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astronomy, a field where many aspects are closer to particle physics than to traditional astronomy.
Someone better not let Simon White read that, because this is exactly what he was complaining about - the invasion of physics into astronomy! :) Whether he likes it or not, particle physics is intimately tied to astronomy/astrophysics.
