AXAF instrument proposal evaluation panel - final report, 1984 November 30

 File — Container: 13, Folder: 1
Scope and Contents From the Sub-Series: The Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility was a telescope using x-rays to see the “empty” space between stars and galaxies that is actually filled with superhot gas. The AXAF was proposed to produce sharp, magnified images in x-rays that complement those made by the Hubble Space Telescope in visible light. Renamed the Chandra X-ray Observatory CXO, the telescope was launched on the space shuttle Columbia in 1999. It is known as one of the Great Observatories. In the early...
