For around 125 years, the Deutsches Museum has been an impressive testimony to mankind's insatiable curiosity and boundless inventiveness. It is one of the world's leading science and technology museums and houses one of the world's largest collections of masterpieces of science and technology.With over 250 impressive pictures, this book provides an insight into the world of the Deutsches Museum. It traces its history, presents the 20 new and refurbished permanent exhibitions in the main building on Munich's Museum Island, but also introduces the four branch museums and everything else the Deutsches Museum has to offer - the archive, the library, the research institute and much more.The biggest highlights from all areas will be presented, including iconic masterpieces such as the Benz patent motor car or Joseph von Fraunhofer's prism spectral apparatus, as well as sensational new objects and media stations such as the Sycamore quantum processor or the giant periodic table of elements. Of course, old and new crowd favourites will not be missing, including the Auntie Ju, Foucault's pendulum and the computer guitarist Fingers. Treasures from the archives and depots will also be presented - from the legendary Magdeburg hemispheres to Otto Hahn's laboratory book, in which he documented the discovery of nuclear fission.

The Flugwerft Schleissheim, whose historical buildings date back to the First World War, has been a branch of the Deutsches Museum since 1992. It has a large number of exhibits tracing the development of aviation, and complements the long-standing aviation air and space exhibition of the Deutsches Museum on the museum island in Munich. In Schleissheim, you can view about 5 5 planes and helicopters displayed on 6500 square metres of exhibition space alongside numerous hang gliders, aviation engines, flight simulators and much more.

This updated and revised second edition of the Flugwerft guide offers a wide range of texts and pictures providing current and historical information on the Flugwerft and its exhibits. With the publication of the second edition, we are also making this guide available in English for the first time. The opening section outlines the history of the facility, spanning the two world wars and the Cold War, and continuing to the present day. The second section takes you on a tour of the exhibits. The third and final section contains photographs and detailed descriptions of the aircraft and booster rockets on display at the Flugwerft Schleissheim.

Nanotechnology and Biotechnology at the Centre for New Technologies Scientists have begun to explore a new cosmos: a long-neglected world in miniature. This microcosm exists on a scale far below that which is visible with the aid of a light microscope: smaller than a bacterium, but larger than the individual atoms and molecules that were the focus of physics and chemistry in the 20th century. On a scale of nanometers billionths of a metre this cosmos contains an abundance of complex structures. The secret of life is also based on these structures. Only recently has modern laboratory made it possible to collect precise date on this hidden world. Biologists, chemists, physicists and materials researchers are working together to understand and configure matter at this level. Their vision is the selective creation of structures and systems at the nanolevel. Breitsameter, Hauser, Hauser, Kampschulde (eds): 2011 120 Pages, 1 CD
