In an interesting exchange, we were able to present our current research projects made in Bremen: The Mars Perspective aims to lay the foundations for the highly automated and resilient production of materials and components from scarce resources free of fossil fuels. The aim is not only to make a contribution to the exploration of Mars, but also to sustainability on Earth.
The group went on a tour of the University of Bremen campus and was welcomed at the Center for Applied Space Technology and Microgravity (ZARM) by the institute's director, Katharina Brinkert. Here, visitors were given an insight into the institute's research, where they were also able to observe a test in the drop tower. Kirsten Tracht then welcomed the visitors to the Bremen Institute of Structural Mechanics and Production Systems (bime) and showed them the future of production - including a new rover. In terms of content, Daniel Meyer closed the loop and presented how he processes metal surfaces at the Leibniz Institute for Materials-Oriented Technologies (IWT) and is researching how to produce functioning components from raw materials for the cluster application.
We would like to thank our visitors for their interest in our research and the exciting exchange of ideas!
