According to Telegraph on February 18, Japan Space Exploration Agency (JAXA), US Aerospace Agency (NASA) and other organizations have collaborated to develop this satellite in hopes of observing and studying mysterious black holes in the universe.
Until now humans have not directly observed black holes, but the scientists' confirmation of the discovery of gravitational waves recently indirectly added evidence that black holes actually exist.
JAXA originally planned ASTRO-H launch last Friday, but they were postponed due to bad weather.
