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.

When does bubble nucleation occur? 100°C? Maybe not. Prof. HangJin Jo will explain how the boiling bubble nucleation occurs and how we could describe the phenomenon.
