Abstract
The ROSAT launch on June 1, 1990 happened to be after the IAU Colloquium No. 123 before the deadline for submitting manuscripts. I therefore take the liberty to deviate grossly from the manuscript of my talk and give a short up to date mission summary. A more complete description of the mission can be found in References 1 and 2.
