   The astounding discoveries made by X-ray astronomers — such as neutron stars and black holes in binary systems, and hot gas filling the space within clusters of galaxies — have revolutionized our view of the Universe. On July 23, 1999, NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, the most powerful X-ray telescope ever built, was launched into space.

   So I would say that X-ray observation has changed our outlook on the universe. X-rays allow us to observe supernova remnants, hot gases in galaxy clusters, black holes, and neutron stars. Galaxy clusters are the largest structures in the universe, and studying their evolution is essential to grasping the entire historical picture.

   How has X-ray astronomy changed our outlook on the universe?

   • X-ray astronomy was born when we learned how to launch instruments into space, and it taught us how intense and dynamic the universe is. This was completely different from what we had seen with our eyes. It was a world that no one had ever imagined. So I would say that X-ray observation has changed our outlook on the universe.

   How will X-ray telescopes expand our knowledge of the universe?

   • Planned collaborations with new and existing observatories will further expand our knowledge of the universe. Since its launch in 1999, NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has been studying the heavens through short-wavelength x-ray light, the best window for sighting colossal black holes, galaxy clusters and the remnants of violent supernovae.
