MPE scientists have separated solar wind charge exchange (SWCX) X-ray emission originating in our Solar System from the diffuse cosmic X-ray, using data from the SRG/eROSITA space telescope.

The telescope will be shipped to Florida for a launch aboard a SpaceX rocket as early as fall 2026. It is designed to work with the Webb and Hubble telescopes to observe the cosmos and solve the ...

Using the eROSITA space telescope, researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics have successfully isolated the X-ray glow from our Solar System, revealing its impact on the ...

Scientists in Japan have developed a high-resolution X-ray telescope sharp enough to distinguish an object just 3.5 mm wide from one kilometer away, by combining precision mirror-making technology ...

The ESA, NASA and CSA have released new images of Saturn captured by the James Webb and Hubble space telescopes that offer an unprecedented view of the gas giant's atmosphere. Particularly, comparing ...
