One year into mission, XRISM reveals movements of cosmic material around supernova remnant and black hole
In September 2023, the joint Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), European Space Agency (ESA), and NASA X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) telescope launched into low-Earth orbit atop a Japanese H-IIA rocket. Since then, the X-ray telescope has undergone a commissioning phase and officially begun performing scientific observations on the universe’s structure, outflows from galaxy nuclei, dark matter, and more.
