In the future, and with low priority, the task might include the possibility to overlay histograms from template (source-free) images for comparison. In this way it would be possible, for example, to check for the presence of extended low surface brightness sources. XMM-Newton SOC/SSC -- 2006-06-28

... Engineering experiments aimed at testing and developing engineering solutions for a future interplanetary vehicle were a prominent activity during missions of Salyut and Mir space stations. ... In October 1998, cosmonauts placed on the outside surface of Mir space station some samples of film-type solar array, which constitutes a key element of the Martian vehicle, in order to study how they are affected by actual space environments. ...

... Once the fusion reaction has transformed hydrogen in the Sun's core to helium, the intense pressure will then initiate nuclear reactions of helium. ... Later the interior of the Sun will contract to a white dwarf, about the size of Earth, and finally cool down to a black dwarf. ... At point E the core temperature of the Sun will rise so high that in one bang, all the rest of the helium will fuse into carbon, causing one third of the solar envelope to be thrown out into space. ...

GRANAT is the Russian x-ray sattelite launched to the high apogee orbit (200,000 km) and operated almost for 10 years (1989 -1999) , carrying out four major instruments: French SIGMA coded-mask hard x-ray telescope (30-1000 keV), Soviet ART-P coded-mask telescope (2??-60?? keV), all-sky monitor WATCH (6-150 keV), and a gamma-burst detector PHEBUS . ...
