According to a source in the space and rocket industry, the maneuver of the propulsion system for the Spectrum-RG to enter the working orbit is planned at about 19.00 Moscow time.

The implementation of the main scientific program in the review of the celestial sphere is scheduled for November 3.

In July, the Spektr-RG space observatory, launched by the Proton-M launch vehicle from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, was launched into orbit.

On July 31, the observatory took the first image of the Centaurus X-3 pulsar, a bright source of x-ray radiation.

Anatoly Cherepashchuk, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Director of the Sternberg State Astronomical Institute, in an interview with NSN, evaluated the operation of the ART-XC telescope at the Spectrum RG observatory, which recorded a thermonuclear explosion on a neutron star in the center of the Galaxy.
