This field of research focuses on the design, construction and operation of space systems, in particular nanosatellites, for future extraterrestrial missions.
This research area is dealing with the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) and the investigation of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP).
An AllSkyCAM system was recently installed at the Environmental Research Station Schneefernerhaus on the Zugspitze. The development took place as part of the VaMEx3-MarsSymphony project, which is part of the DLR's VaMEx initiative.
The University of Würzburg and the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt are cooperating in researching unusual phenomena in airspace. Pilots can report relevant observations to the university.
The New Science of Unidentified Aerospace-Undersea Phenomena (UAP): 33 scientists, including Prof. Kayal from Würzburg, published a comprehensive review on UAP science in "Progress in Aerospace Sciences."
