X-ray Echoes from Circinus X-1
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
Circinus X-1 is a binary system where a dense neutron star orbits a normal star. In 2013, an intense X-ray flare from Circinus X-1 created concentric rings of light. These are X-ray echoes, reflecting off clouds of interstellar dust between us and the system.
