The Spectrum-RG (SRG) mission, to be launched in 2011, will conduct the first all-sky survey in the 0.1-15 keV band via two imaging telescope systems, eROSITA and ART-XC. These will enable the detection of about 100 thousand clusters of galaxies and the mapping of the large scale structure of the Universe. They will also discover all obscured accreting Black Holes in nearby galaxies and about >=3 million new, distant AGNs. In the course of the survey mode two sky regions around the celestial polar zones will be observed with much higher sensitivity. Then, selected sources and dedicated sky regions will be observed in a pointing mode with high sensitivity in order to investigate the nature of dark matter and dark energy. An X-Ray Calorimeter, the SXC experiment, will permit observations of the brightest clusters of galaxies with record energy resolution in pointing mode and mapping of the hot intergalactic medium in the survey mode.
