#GirlsDay and #BoysDay at #mpsgoettingen: 24 curious girls and boys explored our institute and had a chance to print with iron meteorites, “cook” solar plasma and get hands-on experience in our labs and workshops. It was great to have you! Thanks for an exciting day!

Solar Prominences: Supply Mechanisms in the Sun’s Corona

Large amounts of matter need to be lifted into the solar atmosphere to create and sustain the massive plasma structures. New calculations reveal how this is possible. The researchers consider not only the Sun’s atmosphere, but for the first time also the deeper, cooler layers of our star.

It’s cherry blossom time! 💮💮💮Hans-Adolf-Krebs-Weg behind #mpsgoettingen has turned into a lovely cherry walk – offering glimpses of the institute’s far side amidst a sea of white blossoms. Maybe an idea for an evening stroll? #Kirschpost #CherryBlossom @unigoettingen @thegoecampus

Almost like the real thing: Three years before ESA's #ExoMars rover #RosalindFranklin is scheduled to land on #Mars, #mpsgoettingen apprentices have completed their own model of the Mars rover. Great job, guys! 🚀🛰️
