Media Lario congratulates CAS for the launch of Einstein Probe X-ray Space Telescope

Media Lario congratulates the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) for the launch of the Einstein Probe X-ray Space Telescope on January 9^th, from the Xichang Satellite Launch Centre, China, with a Space X-Ray Telescope provided by Media Lario.

Einstein Probe will survey the sky and hunt for powerful blasts of X-ray light coming from mysterious celestial objects such as neutron stars and black holes, trying to reveal more about this violent and little-known side of the cosmos. Einstein Probe uses an X-ray detection technology similar to a lobster eye to first survey a wide field of view.  New sources of X-ray energy or other interesting events are then targeted for high-precision follow-up observations with the more sensitive ‘Follow-up X-ray Space Telescope’ (FXT) built by Media Lario.
