#OTD 25 years ago, the ESA - European Space Agency’s XMM-Newton launched! By itself and through coordinated observations with other telescopes, XMM-Newton continues to add to our understanding of the dynamic X-ray universe — here are some recent highlights. When XMM-Newton and our Chandra X-ray Observatory observed a nearby galaxy, they found a “fossil” from an eruption of its central black hole 5 million years ago. This clump of cold gas adds to our understanding of how supermassive black holes
