The "Cassiopeia A" supernova, as seen by
NASA's "Chandra" X-Ray Observatory

In July 1999, the Space Shuttle Columbia, commanded by Eileen Collins, lofted the Chandra X-ray Observatory (an orbiting X-ray telescope). The Observatory was named after Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, a famous physicist. Since I adopted Chandra that week, I named her after the Observatory.

What a cutey cat she is!

After battling cancer for a while,
Chandra ascended into the heavens on September 3, 2006.
She was a good cat, and a pretty cat, and I miss her!
