MMX – Martian Moons eXploration

With the ‘DLR_Startup Factory’, we are strengthening the support of spin-offs from DLR. Our start-ups bring research results into application and thus onto the market. They provide ideas and drive innovation. With products and services, they generate added value and contribute to solving societal challenges.

Where classical technologies reach their limits, quantum technologies open up new possibilities for research, industry and business. New sensors, simulators, communication networks and computers with previously unattainable performance are made possible through the harnessing of quantum mechanical effects.

In the future, there will still be a lot happening on the roads. Whether it is cars and trucks for individual mobility and freight transport or buses and trams as part of local public transport, the demand will remain high and the usage habits strong. For the foreseeable future, road transport will remain the dominant mode of transport.

Wind energy research

The objective has now been set in Germany and Europe, with the aim of achieving climate neutrality in the economy and society. This is how it is worded in the EU's 'Green Deal'. The consequences of climate change also compel us to strive towards climate-neutral air transport, as this sector is responsible for 3.5 percent of global warming. New technologies are needed to ensure global mobility in the future.

Quantum technologies – at the limit of what is possible

The two moons of Mars, Phobos and Deimos, are the target of the Japanese exploration mission 'Martian Moons eXploration', MMX for short. DLR and the French space agency CNES are involved with a lander that will explore Phobos on the surface for several weeks.

DLRmagazine 174 (March 2024)

18 years ago began the 'career' of DLRs humanoid roboter Justin, which is now on the cover of DLR Magazine 174. Initially just a torso, Justin now boasts sensory and motor skills that come pretty come close to those of humans. Supported by artificial intelligence, Justin is constantly gaining autonomy. Growing autonomy also plays an important role in other areas. In this issue of the magazine, we present autonomous assistance systems in shipping as well as a concept of unmanned air taxis over Hamburg. Last but not least join us on two captivating research missions in spectacular places: a remote water exploration in the Peruvian Andes and preparations for a Venus mission in Iceland.

Serendipitous science from asteroid Apophis' Earth near miss

Some people are uneasy about Friday the 13th – after all, it is popularly considered to be a very unlucky day. However, one catastrophe can be safely ruled out for Friday 13 April 2029: the collision of an approximately 350-metre-diameter asteroid, 99942 Apophis, with Earth. Apophis (a so-called Near-Earth Asteroid) will come extremely close, passing by Earth at an altitude of just 31,750 kilometres – that's within the geostationary orbit in which most telecommunication satellites are located!
