 ing the whole X-ray sky with unprecedented spatial and spectral resolution
  between 2020 and 2021. Mounted on the Russian Spektrum-Roentgen- Gamma ob
 servatory located some 1.5 Million km away from Earth\, it has uncovered m
 eanwhile more than 2 Million new X-ray sources. These give a fresh view on
 to X-ray active stars in our own Milky Way\, they are used to study the gr
 owth and the fate of the supermassive Black Holes in the centers of active
  galaxies and to characterize the mysterious Dark Energy via the mass func
 tion of galaxy clusters. Alongside\, the special scanning pattern and time
 scale allowed eROSITA to discover new transient phenomena in compact objec
 ts\, both in our own galaxy and in the extragalactic sky. In the talk we t
 hrow a quick glance over 60 years of X-ray astronomy\, present the main mo
 tivation to build eROSITA\, and discuss selected highlights from the first
  2.5 years of its operation.</p>  <p><strong>Short bio</strong>: Diplom\,
