Lobster telescope has an eye for X-Rays

Lobster Columbus
Lobsters are influencing astrophysics – “UK astronomers have been at the forefront of designing a revolutionary new X-ray telescope that is based on the eyes of a lobster. By replicating the crustacean’s ability to observe objects all around it without turning its head, scientists are confident that the Lobster instrument will enable a major breakthrough in X-ray astronomy”Link.

I’m looking forward to this tech trickling down and picking up a Logitech Lobster cam soon.
