HEAO A-2 extragalactic resultsResults from the HEAO A-2 experiment concerning the extragalactic X-ray sky are discussed. All-sky maps of hard X-ray sources detected are presented reflecting the temporal variability of the sources that make up the extragalactic X-ray sky. Most of the identified extragalactic objects are not clusters of galaxies but isolated galaxies. Spectra for sources representing classes of active galz galaxies, BL Lacertae objects, and N galaxies are discussed in order of luminosity.
