Since the spring of 2012 there have been many papers published using Fermi LAT public data that claim evidence for narrow spectral lines coming from the region of the Galactic center. This study uses non-Galactic center Fermi-LAT data from survey mode observations, and Earth limb Fermi data to test the dark matter interpretation of this feature and better understand its origins.
