During the last week Chandra completed the observing schedule as
planned.
A Chandra image release was issued on Aug 30 of an area in the Small Magellanic Cloud known as LHa115-N19. This area is filled with ionized hydrogen gas and it is where many massive stars are expelling dust and gas through stellar winds. For further details see: http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2007/n19/ The schedule of targets for the next week is shown below and includes a Director's discretionary time observation of M15. |
