For fifteen years, the world has been fascinated by glorious images taken with the Hubble Space telescope. But these visible images represent just a small portion of a larger picture. Much of the universe contains violent processes and dust-enshrouded objects that are revealed only by searching for their signatures in x-ray and infrared light. In particular, star birth, star death, black holes, cosmic collisions, and the origins of other solar systems are revealed in these wavelengths in stark clarity. This talk will focus on new images from NASA's Chandra and Spitzer space telescopes, how these images are adding to our knowledge and what they are telling us about our complex and amazing universe.
