ZARM Drop Tower in Bremen
‘Drop Your Thesis!’
 
The ‘Drop Your Thesis!’ programme gives university students the opportunity to perform their own scientific experiment in microgravity conditions, as part of their Masters thesis, PhD thesis or research programme, by participating in an ESA-sponsored campaign at the drop tower facility operated by the ZARM Centre of Applied Space Technology and Microgravity in Bremen, Germany.
 
The possibility of offering similar opportunities in other ground-based facilities, such as the INTA drop tower in Madrid, Spain, is currently being assessed.
