Diffusion is a spontaneous process in which molecules move with their concentration gradient. For example, if you place food coloring in water, the food coloring will slowly diffuse through the water until the entire solution has been balanced.
Osmosis is specifically the movement of <em>water</em> through a semipermeable membrane - meaning a membrane that can let some substances in but keep others out - and, similar to diffusion, it moves with its concentration gradient. For example, if you place a glucose solution sealed in plastic in water, water will move into the plastic to even out the concentration of glucose in the entire solution because glucose is too large to diffuse freely.

Explanation:
The Chandra X-ray observatory or CXC for its acronym in English, is an artificial satellite launched by NASA on July 23, 1999. It was named in honor of Indian physicist Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, one of the founders of astrophysics, who determined the boundary mass at which white dwarfs become a neutron star. In addition, Chandra means "moon" in Sanskrit.
The Chandra Observatory is the third of the Great Observatories of NASA. The first was the Hubble Space Telescope, the second was the Gamma Compton Ray Observatory, launched in 1991 and already disintegrated, and the last was the Spitzer Space Telescope. Before launching the Chandra Observatory was known as AXAF by the acronym in English of Advanced X-ray Astronomical Facility.
As the Earth's atmosphere absorbs most X-rays, conventional telescopes cannot detect them and a space telescope is necessary for their study.
In 1976 Riccardo Giacconi and Harvey Tananbaum proposed to NASA the idea of the Chandra Observatory, beginning preliminary work at the Marshall Space Flight Center. Meanwhile, in 1978, NASA launched the first X-ray space telescope, the Einstein (HEAO-2).
Despite this, work on the Chandra project continued during the 1980s and 1990s, but in 1992 the ship was redesigned to reduce costs. Four of the twenty mirrors that the observatory was going to dispose of were removed, and an elliptical orbit with which it would reach a third of the distance to the moon was calculated. This eliminated the possibility of being repaired by the space shuttle, but placed the observatory outside the influence of the earth's radiation belts most of its orbit.
