Constellation-X is NASA’s next major X-ray astronomy mission. Along with LISA, it is a flagship mission of NASA’s Beyond Einstein program. Constellation-X is to provide a substantial improvement in sensitivity for X-ray spectroscopy, that will lead to revolutionary advances in our understanding of the physics in regions of high gravity (black holes and neutron stars) \[…\]
