Continuous observations from satellites over multiple decades have provided a critical contribution to our knowledge and understanding of climate change. This incredible technology has helped determine accurate variations of key climate parameters such as sea level, greenhouse gases, arctic sea ice and forest cover. Going forward into the new decade the space sector is showing […]
By Peter von Ballmoos, astrophysicist, teacher-researcher at the University of Toulouse, IRAP. Dark matter, dark energy, inflation, baryonic asymmetry are today essential hypotheses to explain the Universe we observe. While the very nature of these hypotheses remains stubbornly obscure, their mathematical formalism manages to model the observations with a very high degree of precision. This […]
Mini Symposium in cooperation between the DGLR (Fachbereich L2 - Bemannte Luftfahrzeuge) and the Air and Space Academy Ultraefficient Aircraft technologies for low drag, low weight and low specific fuel consumption are more important than ever to master the challenge towards more sustainable flight. Significant efficiency improvements are mandatory to limit the fuel consumption for next generation […]
