For Prof. von Puttkamer, who unexpectedly died from an illness on 12.27.2012, the closure of the 30 year old Space Shuttle fleet was a "necessary measure for establishing new resources for the future" That this is now for the general public a sensible step on the ground as a part of future planning. Today Mr Samuel Scimemi has replaced Jesco von Puttkamer as the ISS Director. He and his colleagues from the Space Operations Mission Directorate (SOMD) are currently eagerly looking at the development of the COTS-program (Commercial Orbital Transportation Systems) and to the formation of the new CLV (Crew Launch Vehicle) and SLS-programs (Space leeks System). The latter are in Puttkamers words ‘an evolutional symbiosis of the successful Apollos and the space shuttles. The COTS-Program is the ‘measured necessity of scientificboard to outsource for forward functioning in order to be able to concentrate on the core of the work’. In one of the many conversations since 1998, Puttkamer said: "One day a private companies will make our work here in the Low Orbit. The first among these will have the job of searching for ore in the Asterioiden belt. Then in calm we can move after another planet search." There is currently an asteroid "266725 Vonputtkamer" that has been named after him as a timeless recognition of this words. Exactly a year ago on 09.22.2013, on the grounds of on his life and his long service (pleasure – gladness) his fellow colleagues founded the "Jesco von Puttkamer Association" at the International Space Education Institute in Leipzig, which was established in 2005. Since then there have been exactly 300 activities in this first year and continuation of the activities celebrating his life's work, especially in the international young academic sector.
24.09.2013 Opening Presentation of the Jesco von Puttkamer Society as Network for Scientists, colleagues, Engineers, Friends, Readers, Fans, Teachers, Pupils and Students, Chair of Leipzig, Wurzner Str. 4; Founding members: Ralf Heckel, Yvonne Heckel, Ronny Hessel, Evgeniy Zakutin, Michael Cleff, Wolfgang Rumpelt, Rainer Dorenbusch; Chairman: Mr Ralf Heckel, Deputy Chairman Mr Evgeniy Zakutin, Treasurer Frau Yvonne Heckel, 1. Board member Mr Ronny Hessel, 2. Board member Herr R. Dorenbusch 24.09.2013 Dedication of a gallery with Hallmarks of his life from Puttkamers in the Seminar- and Conference room "Space Hotel Leipzig", with a painting from Cleff III, Oil on canvas 80 x 100, 20 other photographs from the life of the scientists. 24.09.2013 Introduction of a plaque on the house where he was born in Leipzig, Salomonstraße 25; Jesco von Puttkamer was the son of Baron Jesco von Puttkamer and his young wife. His father worked 2 blocks away as an editor for the publisher Reclam and among others, in 1935 had the book "oil money and blood" published (Publisher: Hieronimus Mühlberger). 04.10.2013 Obituary in the journal ‘Raumfahrt Concret’, the article discusses the efforts of Puttkamers between the Spaceflying nations United States and Russia on the position of Germany. 07.10.2013 "Across all Borders", Exhibition with the Society corporation partnership Leipzig-Houston e.V. in der Educations centre Leipzig; Out of the motivation of Society’s corporation partnership the photographs and artifacts of the life of the ISS were on display. A lecture summarizing from the pool from Jesco von Puttkamer gave another insight. 10/10/2013 inauguration of a memorial plaque on a House in Huntsville / Alabama , Monte Sano Blvd 1420 " JvP Meeting no. 1 " , gathering of friends and neighbors from Huntsville / Alabama on the terrace of the apartment building from the Apollo era , looking back on his full life as a scientist.

Nichts geht da ohne Handwerk! Zwar zielt die "NASA Roverchallenge" auf die Wissenschaftler von morgen und setzt allerhand Herausforderungen, aber nichts geht da ohne den Fleiß eigener Hände, geführt von einem klugen Kopf. Die meisten der über zweitausend für einen NASA Rover benötigten Teile sind im Handel nicht erhältlich und müssen selbst entworfen und gefertigt werden. Hinzu kommen hohe Ansprüche an Belastbarkeit, Antrieb und Stabilität bei möglichst geringem Gewicht. Das ganze Fahrzeug muss zusammenklappbar sein und im Flugzeug transportierbar. Die Räder müssen ohne Luftdruck fahren. Sensoren erfassen zahlreiche Zustandsdaten und melden diese via Funk an die Rennleitung. Alles ist wie bei der Formel 1. Nur der Rennkurs ist anders, der besteht aus einer nachgestellten Marsoberfläche. Es gibt keinen geraden Asphalt - nur Krater, Steine, Staub und Lavarillen. Alles muss mit der geringsten Energie bewältigt werden. Es erfordert Können, Kondition und Wissen - die richtige Mischung für Fahrzeugbauer, Handwerksmeister und Wissenschaftler von Morgen.
Für Quereinsteiger bietet die NASA Rover AG die richtige Plattform in der Schule und außerschulisch. Es ist der richtige Einstieg in das künftige Handwerk, Ingenieurwesen und Wissenschaft. Vor allem aber beschleunigt eine hingabungsvolle und erfolgreiche Mitgliedschaft in den Projekten des International Space Education Institutes die schulischen Leistungen in jeglicher Hinsicht. Mehr Informationen dazu gibt es unten zum Download. Alle 3 Fahrzeuge werden am 20. September auf dem Augustusplatz zu sehen sein. Mutige dürfen sich auch einmal auf dem Copilotensitz probieren. Ein NASA-Outreach-Partner und beteiligte Handwerksunternehmen erklären vor Ort wie man mit einsteigen kann.

New for young scientists: Out-of-school workshop for the facilitation of talent in boys and girls aged 8-18. After 10-years of international reciprocation between the Space Institute in Leipzig, the NASA and the Russian Aviation Institute, the "NASA Rover AG" in Leipzig offers a great stepping stone between the nations for young scientists. The Leipzig association undertakes more than 250 events per year and has placed the best pupils and students into international competitions. In the past, almost every participant has acquired an academic career in either education or the sciences. Some discover career opportunities in foreign countries. The best so far have landed jobs in Formula 1, NASA or ESA, or have gone on to do a doctorate degree. This group can be joined at the age of 8-years and requires an interest in discovery. You learn how to work a 3D-printer, to program robots and to discover the sciences for yourselves. From 12-13 years you will also be tackling the challenges of being part of an international team with several languages being spoken between your team members. From 16-17 you will realize that the world is a big place and that a lot of opportunities lie before you. Starting in Leipzig’s local businesses, you then conquer industrial companies around the world with your ideas, building prototypes and by introducing them to the professional world. The many acknowledgements and contacts with well reputed academics and institutes will help you in choosing a job or course of study. We will support you worldwide up to the end of your undergraduate study or even further until the achievement of a doctorate. School pupils, student exchange and international exchange years are also possible. At the core of the AG in Leipzig stands the construction of a NASA Rover (a sort of moonbuggy for your age group) with alternative functions and robotic controls. We follow the natural sciences and you can let off steam imaginatively. We start with 3D-printing and end with the CNC-milling machines. Modern social networking, public relations, and linguistic work, as well as the many trips are features that are particularly interesting for girls. It is not uncommon for the media all over the world to be looking over your shoulder. Problem fields like mathematics, physics, English or ethics become child's play when you take this AG with enthusiasm. If you are aware of your body, are sporty and want to achieve more than others, then contact us!
