Einstein probe opens its wide eyes to the X-ray sky

The first images captured by the innovative mission were presented at the 7th workshop of the Einstein Probe consortium in Beijing. They illustrate the satellite’s full potential and show that its novel optics, which mimic a lobster’s eyes, are ready to monitor the X-ray sky. The space X-ray telescope zoomed in on a few well-known celestial objects to give us a hint of what the mission is capable of.

Thanks for that extra, trans.

Co-incidentally, I have been doing some dynamic analyses on somewhat larger structures, and stated off using a time-step of 2 milliseconds, but had to reduce this to 0.5 milliseconds to get acceptable accuracy.

If I had to go to 0.5 femtoseconds each analysis would take a bout 100 million years.

Maybe I need a faster computer.

And returning to the original topic, having done my own research, I now know that lobster’s eyes are reflective, rather than refractive.

Even so, a bit of a stretch to say that this device “mimics a lobster’s eyes”, isn’t it?

Some smidgin of poetic license available?

Not sure the bar should be quite that low.

Mimics a lobster’s eyes.
Big eyes open as it flies.
Seeing right back it tries.

The water article is very interesting, I like the wave pun, no I didn’t go into shock, it all made perfect sense, 2 to 0.5, great, higher water prices, I wonder if today’s computing power could do 0.1?

Anyway I’m sure they will fast track it, and I can see water prices going up a bit with more accuracy.

The calculations they are doing have precisely zero to do with the cost of transporting water from source to your taps.

OK, I read something else into the article, an incorrect presumption.

Thanks for pointing that out, I just imagined higher water prices.

Fermosecond water meters won’t happen.

Phew. I can relax.
