Giacconi saw that by positioning mirrors at shallow angles to the incoming radiation, astronomers could collect X-rays over a large area and funnel them onto a small detector, allowing for photographs "a millionfold" more detailed than previously possible...
...Finding that first target was the neatest possible thing," Henry says. "It took about five minutes for Einstein to move into position, and sure enough we saw this X-ray source move into the center of the picture, stop in the middle of the screen and start building...
