X-ray telescopes

X-ray telescopes are specialized instruments that observe high-energy X-ray radiation from cosmic sources such as black holes, neutron stars, and supernova remnants. Since Earth's atmosphere blocks X-rays, these telescopes are placed in space. They use precise mirrors and detectors to focus and capture X-rays, providing detailed images and data about energetic phenomena in the universe. This allows scientists to study the most extreme and energetic objects and events, helping us understand the nature of the cosmos.
