FIRST IMAGES From Japan's NEW X-RAY Telescope! | XRISM

↓↓↓ Links and more in full description below ↓↓↓

Japan's brand new x-ray telescope, XRISM, has just releasd it's first ever images. They show a galaxy cluster called Abell 2319 and a supernova remnant called N132D. In this video we'll have a look at these images, how good they are and what they're showing, as well as looking at XRISM's mission in general. We also touch on how x-ray telescopes work and the risk we have of having no x-ray telescope in space at all. Enjoy, and leave me any questions or comments down below!
