The most unusual airports worldwide.

For tomorrow, experts Aylin Kilic and Volker Schmid from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) are looking into space, explaining why the teamwork between countries, companies, and scientists is becoming increasingly important.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is moving into all areas of life – including aircraft cockpits. The objective is to use digital assistants to make flying smarter and safer and to replace co-pilots in the medium run.

Researchers at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) found out: Small changes in flight altitude and airspeed, together with the choice of energy source, can already enable significant environmental impact reductions.

Schaeffler’s Automotive CEO Matthias Zink assesses ten propositions about mobility of tomorrow.

What requirements must be met so that airborne urban mobility can be used in a few years? In a research project, the German Aerospace Center DLR has sought answers.

The number of satellites in space is rising rapidly. But what if these high-tech objects go to pot? Then they orbit the Earth at high speed as dangerous space debris. To make the orbit resilient for the future, a clean-up mission is needed.

Solar power systems do not produce energy at night, so it would be better to install them where the Sun “shines” for 24 hours. That would only be the case in space. Solar energy from Earth’s orbit – a feasible vision or science fiction?

95 years ago, a young man made aviation history. In May 1927, Charles A. Lindbergh was the first pilot to cross the Atlantic in a solo non-stop flight. His success formula was to save weight. He even chose not to have a radio and parachute on board.

Does a greenhouse effect exist on Mars? How fast does the world’s fastest electric airplane fly? What will soon open in space? Aerospace is fascinating – go ahead and test your knowledge.

While airships keep appearing on the visionary horizon from time to time none of them has so far managed the leap into the real world of mobility. The H₂ Clipper is a new attempt.

In the Star Trek movies, spacecraft powered by ion thrusters dash through the universe. In the United States a rather earthly aircraft recently completed an initial test flight with such a system.

The “Spirit of Innovation” propeller-powered aircraft has set a new speed record for electric vehicles of 555.9 km/h (345.4 mph). How great is the potential of this high-powered plane?

Instead of burning thousands of tons of fuel the technology start-up SpinLaunch is planning to hurl rockets into orbit using centrifugal force. This is how the launcher centrifuge is said to work ...

This high-speed boat is said to achieve a speed of 150 km/h (93 mph)or 80 knots. That would be a new world record.

Flying, but greener – that’s what the future of aviation has to look like.

The most important passenger on board of the jumbo jet called SOFIA is a space telescope.

Space exploration has been a technological trailblazer from the outset. Now it’s receiving an extra boost by powerful private-sector competitors and innovative start-ups.

Airports of the future for air taxis and delivery drones - this is what they could look like.

Will humans eventually be forced to colonize Mars? “tomorrow” talked to a NASA expert about extraterrestrial life and its hurdles. A cosmic mix of facts on the current state of research.

The future was never brighter and enthusiasm for technology never greater than during the brief period between the eve of the 20th century and the outbreak of the First World War.

It doesn't always have to be a desk. These ten people have a slightly different workplace.

Clogged roads and railroads at their capacity limits – the conquest of airspace may help decongest traffic on the ground. Vertical mobility using drones is a promising complement to the portfolio.

​Machines are part of our lives – even outside the human habitat. The machine that’s farther away from the Earth than any other is the Voyager 1 spacecraft.

In spite of being out of service for more than 40 years, the five “Saturn V” F-1 rocket engines rest at Kennedy Space Center in Florida continue to rank among the world’s most powerful engines.
