Tag der Raumfahrt (Space Day): Experience current research in space robotics at the DFKI Robotics Innovation Center

Whether it's navigation in cars, live television broadcasts or climate protection measures – space travel is not only fascinating, it also plays an important role in our lives today and in the future. Initiated by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK) and organized by the German Space Agency at DLR, numerous research facilities in Germany will open their doors to the public on Tag der Raumfahrt (Space Day) on 28 and 29 March 2025, including the DFKI Robotics Innovation Center in Bremen.

On Friday, March 28, 2025, the Robotics Innovation Center invites you to take a look behind the scenes of robotics research and discover the latest developments in space robotics. Our experts will provide exciting insights into current projects, present the latest robotic technologies, and guide visitors through impressive test facilities such as the artificial lunar crater landscape and the Maritime Exploration Hall with its 3.4 million liter salt water tank, where systems can be tested in simulated weightlessness.

Discover how artificial intelligence and autonomous robots are being developed for use in orbit and on planetary surfaces, how they are revolutionising space exploration, and how they will play a key role in future missions to the Moon and Mars. Sustainability is a key challenge for the future of space: That's why we're researching modular, adaptable systems that are easier to maintain, upgrade and reuse. This will help reduce costs and minimise space debris.
