Grazing-incidence optics has revolutionized soft-x-ray astronomy yet the scientifically-important hard-x-ray region has gone relatively unexplored at high sensitivity and fine angular scales. This situation is now changing with several flight-ready balloon-borne focusing telescopes and planned satellite-borne observatories, This review will discuss some of the developments in mirror and focal plane technologies that are making these payloads possible.
