From November 16 to 18, more than 3000 registered experts gathered at the Congress Centrum Bremen. In addition, some 400 international exhibitors from the civil, military and commercial space sectors presented their technological innovations in Halls 4 and 6.

For example, guests included the Director General of the European Space Agency (ESA), Joseph Aschbacher, and the Chairman of the Executive Board of the DLR German Aerospace Center, Prof. Anke Kaysser-Pyzalla, as well as numerous international delegations and the ambassadors of Italy and the Netherlands. Also on hand were the industry's leading companies, including Bremen-based OHB, Airbus and ArianeGroup.

They all took the opportunity to exchange ideas, network and initiate business. Next year, there will again be real "Rocket Science" in Bremen.
