#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!

A one-and-a-half hour documentary on how an international consortium led by the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research is planning the flight of the most capable solar observatory ever to leave the Earth's surface. Carried by a stratospheric balloon, the observatory Sunrise III is set to fly from Sweden to Canada in the summer of 2022. Free from disturbances of the Earth's atmosphere, under conditions resembling space, it is expected to continuously observe the solar surface with unprecedented precision during its five-day flight. The anticipated dataset will influence astrophysics for decades to come. The film follows the Sunrise III team during the final sixteen months before the flight.

Did you see the reenactment of the Sunrise III flight with a cute little model at the kids' show? https://academiccloud.social/@imprs_solar/114723459947791480 Meanwhile, all our visitors of course also got to see the real Sunrise III observatory up close. Certainly one of the absolute highlights of this #ndwgoe! Did you manage to get a selfie in the mirror?

And then the Sunrise III flight, kids' version! Just look at how absolutely adorable this demonstration turned out to be 🤩 A launch with a bunch of helium balloons (several of them just to be sure!), a short flight, and finally the landing sequence - initiated with professionally applied scissors tonight.

What you see here is not a sci-fi portal - it's the primary mirror of Sunrise III, our stratospheric solar observatory! You can marvel at it live on 21 June at the 6th Night of Science in Göttingen - you rarely get this close to high-tech research. Come along, be amazed, ask us questions - and experience science that inspires!

#ndwgoecountdown Sunrise III – Ballongetragenes Teleskop nach großer Reise zurück in Göttingen

Zur Sunrise III Mission gibt es diesmal gleich drei Anlaufstellen: Einen Vortrag, mehrere Vorführungen eines packenden Dokumentarfilms, und nicht zuletzt das Teleskop selbst, das letzten Sommer nach seinem dritten Flug in Kanada gelandet ist und sich nun unseren Besucher*innen präsentiert. Stationen sind 1/5
