Great question thanks for asking.
X-ray telescope isn't based in the earth .
We know that our atmosphere isn't Very well transparent to X-rays.
X-rays interact with any abject , even atoms too therefore it can't penetrate earth atmosphere.
(i)⇒ We know that X -rays can't penetrate our earth atmosphere. So x-rays telescope must be orbit or space based.
(ii)⇒ As x-rays radiation penetration cause radiation sickness damages in human cells further leads to cancer and death. So it is beneficial to use it outside the earth orbit.
(iii)⇒ X-rays telescopes are placed into orbit of the Earth or space because it provides the clearer view of other celestial orbit .
(iv)⇒ In short , Earth’s atmosphere is opaque so it leads to block x -rays.
Hope it Helps
