About

    The Chandra X-ray Observatory is a space-based telescope launched by NASA in 1999. It is specifically designed to capture high-resolution images and spectroscopy of X-ray sources in space, such as black holes, supernova remnants, and clusters of galaxies. Chandra's ability to observe X-ray emissions provides valuable information about the hot, energetic processes occurring in the universe. The telescope has made significant contributions to our understanding of topics such as black hole physics, galaxy formation, and the evolution of stars.
