In astronomy, Calvera is a nickname —based on the villain in the 1960 film The Magnificent Seven— of an X-ray source known as 1RXS J141256.0+792204 in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey Bright Source Catalog (RASS/BSC). It lies in the constellation Ursa Minor and is identified as an isolated neutron star. It is one of the closest of its kind to Earth. The object is so-named because the seven previously known isolated neutron stars are known collectively as 'The Magnificent Seven'. (Wikipedia).
NASA's newest X-ray telescope will have a lengthy structure that unfolds in space, allowing it to see high-energy objects like feeding black holes.
