Summary

Description
English: First-light X-ray image of the Galactic center region obtained by LEIA in a one-shot observation of 798 s in 0.5–4 keV, covering a field of view of 18fdg6 × 18fdg6 (left). The simulated observation of the same patch of sky is also shown for comparison (right). The observation identifies a source (4U 1826-24) that had become obviously much brighter than viewed at a previous observation. Colors represent counts per pixel.
