What you need to know about IXPE mission ?
Slated to launch in 2020, the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) mission will help explore some of the most turbulent and extreme environments in our universe — from the hottest, messiest star factories to violent jets screaming away from monster black holes.
The IXPE mission will fly three telescope systems capable of measuring the polarisation of X-rays emitted by cosmic sources.
