New scientific publication shows that the accelerated expansion of the universe can be explained without “dark energy” – using an extended spacetime geometry based on Finsler-Friedmann equations.

School students interested in science are invited to participate and to design, construct and test their very own mini satellite.

A team of researchers has found a way to make oxygen production in space lighter, easier, and more sustainable — using magnetism. The team described their system and demonstrated its effectiveness in a recent article in Nature Chemistry.

Experiments on the ISS will show how quickly fire can spread on spacecraft and what implications this will have for future space missions. The research is carried out by scientists from ZARM and the Gifu University in Japan.

On July 2, 2025, Marvin Warner, a true homegrown talent of the University of Bremen, successfully defended his PhD thesis entitled: “Enabling Ultra-High Vacuum for Quantum Optical Instruments in Space.”

On July 10 at 2 p.m., Marian Woltmann explains how bringing Bose-Einstein condensates into microgravity enables new applications and unprecedented precision for cold-atom quantum technologies.

How well do we understand how atoms fall in a gravitational field? Can we extract reliable and testable information from theories that seem fundamentally incompatible? Join the talk on 3 July 2025 at 2 pm at ZARM.

Explore how Earth’s gravity is shaped by hydrology. On July 01 at 14:00, Alka Singh from the Amrita University in India explains how suites of satellites provide us a bird's eye view on hydrological processes.

On June 19 at 14:00, Moritz Huckfeldt explains the mathematical foundations for clock observations in satellite gravity field estimation and how he uses simulations to assess the feasibility of small satellite swarms.
