Description:

At the edge of the spectral frontier, strange things go bang in the night. High-energy radiation, the alarm signal of atoms in extreme distress, can only be detected in space through the advanced technology of X-ray telescopes and gamma-ray satellites. In Extreme Astronomy, rare but spectacular catastrophes caused by high-energy radiation -such as supernovas, stars in collision, and planets falling into black holes- are glimpsed through these instruments, teaching us more about our universe. <45mn 14s>
