The sky will soon be populated with a fleet of new X- and gamma-ray satellites with extraordinary capabilities. This paper is meant to introduce these new missions, Chandra, XMM, and Astro-E, which will provide a large fraction of our high energy “space observatory” functionality for the next decade.
