Astra Aether

We are the team Astra Aether from Bad Homburg. On this website we inform about our progress in competitions of all kinds, our activities in the LemaS program and the research projects of all students we supervise. The team consists of Alina, Linus, Boris, Hongye, Lennard, Niki, Constantin and our supervisor Sebastian Fischer. Our activities are mostly limited to the Kaiserin-Friedrich-Gymnasium.


Our competitions and research projects

Extracurricular competitions are a good way to challenge and encourage interested students.  This is done through constant education and setting new challenges that are always met. Below are the major competitions and research projects that we have participated or been involved in over the past 3 years.

CanSat-competition 22/23

13.10.2023 - today

The CanSat - a nationwide competition, which is subsequently continued in a European round. The goal of the competition is to build a mini-satellite, which will perform various missions. This includes a given primary mission and a self-selected secondary mission. More information about our mission can be found here.


International Science-Olympiads 22/23

Yearly every year

The International Science Olympiads are a group of competitions in which all participating countries provide a team consisting of 4-6 people in the different fields of science. In Germany, these teams are selected through the 4 rounds of selection competitions for the International Olympiads. We take part in these selection competitions every year and regularly achieve great success.


National Artificial Intelligence Competition

March - October 2022

The BwKI - the nationwide competition on the latest cutting-edge technology, artificial intelligence. The goal is to design and program your own AI that solves a task of your own choosing. So far, we have participated twice and reached the national finals both times.


CanSat-competition 21/22

October 2021 - May 2022

The CanSat - a nationwide competition, which is subsequently continued in a European round. The goal of the competition: the construction of a mini-satellite, which is to carry out various missions. This includes a given primary mission and a self-selected secondary mission. Our progress at that time can still be seen today in the BLOG.


DLR - Build a wind turbine with an energy storage system

März 2021 bis Juni 2021

The goal of this unique DLR competition was to design and build a model of a wind turbine ourselves, including our own energy storage system. With our new approach of a vertical wind turbine, which rotates almost frictionless by magnetic ball bearings, gains its energy by lorentz forces and then stores the gained energy with a hydrogen fuel cell, we achieved the 3rd place Germany-wide. Our documentation can be found in the archive.


Sponsors

Currently we participate in the CanSat competition, which is very costly due to its intensity. Therefore, we thank our sponsors:
