The Chandra X-Ray Observatory (CXO), the x-ray component of NASA's Great Observatories, was launched on 1999, July 23 by the Space Shuttle Columbia. After satellite systems activation, the first x-rays focussed by the telescope were observed on 1999, August 12. Beginning with the initial observation it was clear that the telescope had survived the launch environment and was operating as expected. Despite an initial surprise due to the discovery that the telescope was far more efficient for concentrating CCD-damaging low-energy protons than had been anticipated, the observatory is performing well and is returning superb scientific data. Together with other space observatories, most notably XMM-Newton, it is clear that we have entered a new era of discovery in high-energy astrophysics.

First detection of ultra-fast outflows in a quiescent galaxy
First detection of an ultra-fast outflow (v≈0.07c) in a quiescent galaxy quenched ~9 Gyr ago, suggesting AGN winds can maintain quiescence independent of global star formation.

DIffuse X-ray Explorer (DIXE): Sky Survey Strategy and Collimator Response Demodulation
DIXE proposes CSS-based survey strategies covering 72.5% of the sky with 26-68 ks exposures and shows via simulation that MCMC collimator demodulation yields 1° point-source localization and 3° extended-source resolution.

Constraints on magnetic monopoles from X-ray observations of neutron stars
X-ray non-detections of old millisecond pulsars constrain the Galactic magnetic-monopole flux to below about 6e-19 cm^-2 s^-1 sr^-1 for QCD-scale catalysis, the strongest bound in the 1e11-1e13 GeV mass range.

A Disappearing Act: Constraints From "Missing" Flares of Repeating Partial TDE Candidates
Non-detections of expected third flares in TDE 2022dbl and TDE 2020vdq support rpTDE interpretation over independent events, with modeling favoring bound main-sequence star orbits and deep initial encounters.

Nuclear Activity and Host Galaxy Properties of Low-Luminosity AGN Identified from VLA Observations
VLA radio-selected LLAGN show 84% optical, 63% X-ray, and 13% infrared detection rates, with black holes ~0.7 dex smaller, accretion rates ~4.2 dex lower, and host galaxies ~0.3 dex lower in stellar mass with ~0.5 dex...

The SKA View of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect from Massive Cosmic Halos
The SKA will enable high-resolution, high-sensitivity observations of the thermal SZ effect in massive halos, capturing both pressure substructures and large-scale ICM emission.
