- History_of_X-ray_astronomy abstract "History of X-ray astronomy begins in the 1920s with interest in short wave communications for the U.S. Navy. This led to the study of the ionosphere. By 1927 interest in going beyond studies with short waves led to developing theories pertaining to putting Goddard's rockets into the upper atmosphere. Theories included detection of ultraviolet radiation and X-rays at high altitudes. The first successful rocket flight equipped with instrumentation able to detect solar ultraviolet radiation occurred in 1946. X-ray solar studies began in 1949. By 1973 a solar instrument package orbited on Skylab providing significant solar data.In 1965 the Goddard Space Flight Center program in X-ray astronomy was initiated with a series of balloon-borne experiments. In the 1970s this was followed by high altitude sounding rocket experiments, and that was followed by orbiting (satellite) observatories.The first rocket flight to successfully detect a cosmic source of X-ray emission was launched in 1962 by a group at American Science and Engineering (AS&E).X-ray wavelengths reveal information about the bodies (sources) that emit them.".
