What about Chandra? (Score:3, Informative)
Still, I recently read about another x-ray satellite out there that's newer and likely to be still more important for future x-ray imaging. Chandra observatory was launched by NASA not long ago. You can get more information at chandra.harvard.edu [harvard.edu].
Feel free to check out both pages and see the differences between RXTE and Chandra.
