DLR Institute of Structures and Design’s Post

Enthusiasm for science and research at Girls' Day at our institute! 🔬   Yesterday, #GirlsDay2025 took place. Together with other #DLR institutes, we opened our doors to young girls interested in science and offered deeper insights into our research.   Firstly, our colleagues simulated the re-entry of a so-called Crew Return Vehicle into the atmosphere, thereby demonstrating the special characteristics of #CMC material. The young researchers had also the chance to crash selfmade objects in our miniature Drop Tower and to investigate their crash behaviour.   We were delighted by the interest shown and hope we could inspire curiosity for STEM careers! 🌟 Many thanks to our team: Sandrine Hönig, Stefan Frick, Erik Wegener, Leonardo Marconi and Luisa Jendrzok.   Deutsches Zentrum für Luft-und Raumfahrt e.V.  #dlrbt #dlr #youngresearchers #aerospace #research #womeninscience #cmc #forschung #raumfahrt #luftfahrt #GirlsDay
