Currently, a solar-powered catamaran sailing under the Swiss flag is attempting to find a sunny course across the oceans – with a little help from German technology between the sun and At Home in Many Skies(September 2010)He is probably the most versatile and at the same time least known aeronautical pioneer: Enrico Forlanini excelled in not just one but three aeronautical fields. This is the story of the man who built the first engine- powered helicopter, manufactured dirigibles and invented the hydrofoil boat. Z as in Computer(Juni 2010)Konrad Who? This is many people’s response when they hear the name Konrad Zuse. Rather strange given the fact that they usually sit next to one of his inventions, a freely programmable calculating machine with fl oating-point arithmetic based on the binary system - or computer for short. The inventor of the computer would have been 100 years old this year. Getting Bigger and Bigger(März 2010) Some people start a company and want to stay small. Skilled craftspeople may be happy making astrolabes for a specialist clientele, for example, or making custom-made furniture.

And how can you make sure that your staff or colleagues give their best, and get the best from their work. Trampling in the Snow(März 2009)Neumayer III will be Germany's first research station in the Antarctica which is built on top of the ice. To stay there in spite of massive annual snow and ice deposits, engineers had to come up with a design that took inspiration from a cold man in the snow. | | LABO als E-PaperAktuelle AusgabeAus dem Inhalt: Titelstory: Reinstwassersystem LaboStarTM Leitartikel: Regenerative Medizin Fachbeitrag: Neues Mausmodell | |
