This talk reviews the observations of the high-energy emission of young supernovae, providing an update from previous reviews in 1995 and 2003. A summary plot shows the number distribution of X-ray luminosities, currently totalling 25 supernovae, from which it is clear that SN IIP are weak X-ray sources, SN IIn are very luminous sources, and SN Ib/c cover a broad range in luminosity.
