NuSTAR (Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array)

NuSTAR (Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array) is a space-based observatory that observes high-energy X-ray light from energetic cosmic events. It uses specialized telescopes to detect X-rays emitted by phenomena such as black holes, neutron stars, and supernova remnants. Unlike visible light telescopes, NuSTAR can see the universe's most energetic processes, helping scientists understand extreme environments and the physics behind powerful cosmic explosions. Launched in 2012, it provides detailed images and spectra, enhancing our knowledge of the high-energy universe and the fundamental nature of matter under extreme conditions.
