NASA will study black holes and supernovae using its new spectroscopic telescope (NuSTAR) that is slated to travel to orbit on June 13. It’s the first telescope capable of studying light in the high-energy, short-wavelength X-ray range. Its sensitivity is 100 times higher than that of its predecessors. Complete with images sent back by the Hubble Spitzer and Chandra telescopes, surveillance data from the new “space eye” with the operational lifespan of five years will give scientists an insight into how black holes are born.
