MPS Göttingen<p>What you see here is not a sci-fi portal - it's the primary mirror of Sunrise III, our stratospheric solar observatory! You can marvel at it live on 21 June at the 6th Night of Science in Göttingen - you rarely get this close to high-tech research. Come along, be amazed, ask us questions - and experience science that inspires!</p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://academiccloud.social/@ndw_goe" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>ndw_goe</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://academiccloud.social/@sunrise3" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>sunrise3</span></a></span></p><p><a href="https://academiccloud.social/tags/ndwgoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ndwgoe</span></a> <a href="https://academiccloud.social/tags/ndwgoemps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ndwgoemps</span></a> <a href="https://academiccloud.social/tags/mpsgoettingen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mpsgoettingen</span></a> <a href="https://academiccloud.social/tags/goettingen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>goettingen</span></a> <a href="https://academiccloud.social/tags/sunriseIII" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sunriseIII</span></a> <a href="https://academiccloud.social/tags/maxplanck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>maxplanck</span></a></p>
