Q:
I was wondering if the Hubble space telescope and the Chandra
X-Ray Observatory ever look at the same objects at the same
time?
A:
Yes, Hubble and Chandra will look at many of the same objects.
In general, they will not look at them at the same time, because
of scheduling difficulties, but on occasion they will look at
the same object at the same time, if that object is expected to
change rapidly. An example would be a supernova that recently
exploded, or a star that was rapidly varying.
