View data collected by the XMM-Newton observatory in Sky.

Orbiting high above the Earth is the XMM-Newton observatory (named after Sir Isaac Newton). The European Space Agency have crafted this KML showing data collected by the program - matching the information available in Google Sky. Descriptions, photos and links are all included to provide a fascinating tour of space.
