With its participation in the DEAR and LARS studies, OHB is looking at both sides of the coin when it comes to lunar dust: for DEAR, lunar dust is a challenge, whereas for LARS it is a valuable resource which must be exploited to the best possible effect.

The Additive Layer Manufacturing (ALM) is one of the key technology have been demonstrated to provide a significant added value for space missions. . When repairs are needed during a mission on board the International Space Station ISS and the necessary tools are not available, Alexander Gerst may experience difficulties performing his work. Therefore 3D printing technology directly on board of the ISS will allow producing on-demand tools, spares and components according to the needs. We. Create. Space.

A conversation about astronomy, signals from outer space – and why basic research is good for the economy and tourism. We. Create. Space.

OHB began pursuing the NewSpace approach more than 20 years ago. It had its big breakthrough with the concept of building satellites for constellations in a significantly smaller size.
