Cover illustration: The remnant of the historical supernova of 1604, also known as Kepler’s supernova remnant. The image is based on X-ray observations made by NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory. The colours red, green and blue correspond to X-ray emission lines from oxygen (0.5-0.7 keV), iron L-shell emission (0.7-1 keV) and silicon K-shell emission (1.7-1.9 keV), respectively.
