Abstract

The great sensitivity and high angular resolution of the Chandra X-ray observatory have permitted the observations of objects ranging from planets in the Solar system to the most distant quasars. I will talk about what we are finding out about stars, supernovae, neutron stars, black holes and dark matter in the universe using this remarkable tool.
