STS-54 Diffuse X-Ray Spectrometer

Louis Kaluzienski, Program Scientist, Wilton T. Sanders, Principal Investigator, and Chris Dunker, Diffuse X-Ray Spectrometer (DXS) Mission Manager, each give an overview of the DXS, including the purpose of the DXS, a brief description of x-ray astronomy, the scientific objectives of the DXS, and information on the STS-54 Endeavour mission, in which the DXS is part of the payload. The men then answer questions from the press.
