The Telescope Array Project is a successor to the High Resolution Fly's Eye (HiRes) and AGASA (Akeno Giant Air Shower Array) experiments. It is the largest ultra high energy cosmic ray experiment in the northern hemisphere. The Telescope Array observatory has been collecting data since 2008 using a hybrid of fluorescence telescopes and scintillator surface detectors. Some of the first results from the experiment are presented including the monocular spectrum from the Middle Drum fluorescence site and the spectrum from the scintillator array. These are in good agreement with the spectrum from the High Resolution Fly's Eye. In addition, a first pass at a composition measurement is made and indicates a predominantly light composition in the 10(19)eV region. Finally, some of the ongoing work of the group is presented including a novel technique for an end to end calibration of the telescopes involving a 40 MeV linear accelerator.
