Scientific paper

A discussion is presented of the advantages of the Moon for X-ray
astronomy. It is concluded that large area detectors connected to long
focal length telescopes will provide superior signal to noise ratios and
resolution compared to any high energy photon observatories that can be
practically placed in Earth orbit.
