| During the last week Chandra completed the observing schedule as
planned.
A Chandra press release was made on Feb 5 describing the discovery of two huge intergalactic clouds of diffuse hot gas. These clouds are the best evidence yet that a vast cosmic web of hot gas contains the long-sought missing matter - about half of the atoms and ions in the Universe. For details see: http://chandra.harvard.edu/press/05_releases/press_020205.html The schedule of targets for the next week is shown below and includes an observation of GX13+1 coordinated with RXTE. |
