正文(英文) | The New Zealand Space Agency (NZSA) and the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) have been cooperating intensively in space research since 2018. Eight joint research projects in the fields of Earth observation, propulsion and radar have now been launched. This was announced during a virtual meeting on 3 February 2022, which was attended by Paul Stocks (Deputy Secretary Labour, Science & Enterprise), Iain Cossar (General Manager, Science & Innovation) and Andrew Johnson (Space Policy & Regulatory Systems) from the NZSA and Anke Pagels-Kerp (Divisional Board Member for Space) and Susann Groß (Head of Space Research and Technology Programme) from DLR. In the run-up to the event, DLR researchers developed project ideas together with New Zealand institutions in the research and commercial sectors. In three workshops on the topics of propulsion, Earth observation and radar, they developed project ideas and prepared feasibility studies. "This cooperation is an excellent example of how successful international collaboration can thrive and be effectively implemented during a pandemic," explains Anke Pagels-Kerp. Following the feasibility studies, synergistic projects with great scientific potential were identified through a joint evaluation process. Special focus was placed on ensuring that the partners bring complementary skills to the table and on selecting topics already highly relevant in the respective research institutions. "By implementing these future-oriented projects, DLR and NZSA are deepening their joint commitment to space research and contributing to solving problems together that would have been difficult to complete individually," says Susann Groß. "There is a long history of scientific collaboration between Aotearoa New Zealand and Germany, and I look forward to our continued joint efforts into these exciting ground-breaking areas of scientific research," read a statement from Hon Dr Megan Woods, New Zealand's Minister for Energy and Resources, and Research, Science and Innovation presented at the meeting. Paul Stocks is also enthusiastic about the cooperation and its prospects, adding: "Germany is one of Aotearoa New Zealand's leading science and innovation partners and DLR is home to some of the world's most advanced aerospace technology capability. I'm excited about this partnership which sets Aotearoa New Zealand's position in cutting-edge aerospace research." Project overview
The collaborative projects started on 01.01.2022. A detailed overview and further background information can be found here. |
