Prof. Ulrich Walter successfully completed his assignment as a science astronaut and research specialist for the German D-2 Mission. He is living the dream of many scientists having travelled in space for 10 days on board the Space Shuttle Columbia and the European Space Station.
"Space travel opens really completely new horizons. It unites humans and at the same time different ways of thinking."
Since March 2003, he is heading of the Department of Astronautics at the Technical University of Munich and teaches and conducts research in the field of applied space technology and systems engineering. His focus is on real-time and service robotics using AI, in particular robotics assistance for the elderly (geriatronics). He researches and teaches systems engineering, the empirical science of developing and optimizing complex products and processes in companies. As a trained project manager, he advises companies worldwide in this field, especially in the areas of quality and risk management. Since 2016 he hosts the weekly space documentary SpaceTimes in the German News Channel WeltTV evening program, also available on youtube.
