Reaching out to the edges of the known universe (10 billion light years), the observatory's x-ray telescope will be able to detect and study radiat resources at thousand times faint than those observed previously. Riccardo Giacconi, professor of Astronomy and director of the new satellite (dubbed the "Einstein Observatory"), said last week...
...High Energy Astrophysical Observatory-2 (HEAO-2, dubbed the "Einstein Observatory" by project officials), primarily designed and controlled by HSCFA astronomers, should provide scientists with the first detailed X-ray photographs of various cosmic radiation sources, including pulsars, quasars, supernovae, black holes and clusters of galaxies. In space, HEAO-2's X-ray telescope can operate with a thousand times more sensitivity than similar earthbound instruments...
Sponsored primarily by a Center for Astrophysics (CFA) team headed by professor of astronomy Riccardo Giacconi, the High Energy Astrophysical Observatory-B (HEAO-B), to be renamed the "Einstein Observatory" upon reaching orbit is designed to for the first time take high resolution X-Ray photographs of a variety of distant cosmic objects, including neutron stars, pulsars, quasars, hot gas clouds and clusters of galaxies...
Glass's five hour opera "Einstein on the Beach," indicates his solution to that problem. The basic text of the opera is a sequence of numbers and the names of the notes. "That way, the structure and content of the piece are identical," Glass said...
...Einstein on the Beach," staged in several European cities, was performed for only two nights at New York's Metropolitan Opera House. "It's different here" Glass said.
