This paper reports on progress we have made in modelling cosmic X-ray sources on supercomputers. The results we present are meant to serve as an example for the fact that sophisticated visualization techniques play a crucial role in scientific computing. Among the graphical methods we demonstrate, raytracing in curved space-time and a physically motivated 3D-volume rendering algorithm might be of interest to the graphics community in general.
