ZARM scientists are studying the handling of cryogenic propellants in the tanks of rocket upper stages and orbital fuel depots and were able to investigate the growth of individual vapor bubbles in liquid hydrogen under microgravity conditions.

A research team from Bremen has made significant progress toward a self-sufficient Mars mission: a fertilizer, which can be produced solely with Martian resources, has been successfully used to grow edible biomass

STEM meets space travel: Launch campaign for the 12th German CanSat Competition 2025/26

Successful conclusion to the Bremen Big Data Challenge 2026 – the third edition of the programming competition attracted more school students than ever before!

Refueling in space in one of the research areas Prithvi is working on at ZARM. Today she successfully completed her doctoral thesis.

A group of four scientists, led by Prof. Dr. Cyprien Verseux from ZARM, has set off on a two-week expedition to the Atacama Desert (Chile) – to gain a better understanding of Mars.

No breathable air. Little water. No shortcuts. The Mars Production Facility recreates the Red Planet’s harsh environment to test how we’ll live, work, and produce on Mars — and to drive innovation for a sustainable future on Earth.

The University of Bremen awarded the title of professor to Cyprien Verseux thus recognizing his outstanding contributions for future sustainable long-term missions to Mars.

What invisible force shapes vast flow patterns in oceans, atmospheres, and stars? Philipp Vieweg reveals how gravity-driven stratification leads to spontaneous self-organization of large-scale structures in turbulent convection and shear flows.

If you are on Mars, you can’t wait for deliveries. So how do you produce what you need to survive? Marc, Christiane, Cyprien and Katharina will explain how to embrace resource scarcity on Mars to develop a new paradigm of sustainable production.
