It all began in 2003 with a competition announced by the German Space Agency at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) as part of the National Space Programme. The task was to design and build a...
The Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program (EnMAP) satellite sees the world very differently from the way the people who live there do. The German environmental satellite measures the solar radiation that is reflected by Earth's surface. EnMAP not only...

These images were created using data acquired by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC), which was developed at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) and is operated by the DLR Institute of Planetary Research...
The Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program (EnMAP) mission is the first hyperspectral satellite developed and built in Germany. With its two spectrometers, it analyses the solar radiation reflected from Earth's surface at wavelengths ranging from visible light to...
A challenging feat for a little robot: Honey the Astrobee must grasp and transport Bumble the Astrobee. To pull it off, Honey needs to understand Bumble's trajectory, position itself correctly and avoid a collision at all costs. Artificial...
The opening of the hatch on the US Quest airlock of the International Space Station (ISS) on 23 March 2022 at 13:55 CET will mark the start of the most challenging task of German astronaut Matthias Maurer's six-month 'Cosmic...
At first glance, masses appear rigid and immobile. However, this is deceptive because they are constantly in motion. Liquid rock shifts in Earth's interior, water is redistributed in large quantities across the oceans and on the continents, and air...
The wind is not just 'wind' – but a complicated arrangement of turbulent features that are influenced by the surrounding environment. Air turbulence is created by the landscape, but also by buildings, roads and wind turbines. In the ESTABLIS-UAS...
The New Zealand Space Agency (NZSA) and the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) have been cooperating intensively in space research since 2018. Eight joint research projects in the fields of Earth observation, propulsion...
