An overview over the mission of the X-ray astronomy satellite ROSAT (Röntgensatellit) is given with an emphasis on the first soft X-ray all-sky survey carried out with an imaging telescope. Several examples of time variability studies made possible by the all-sky survey are shown for active late-type stars. Two exceptional long-duration stellar flares are presented.
