Bacteria can live on almost anything – some even on oil. Friedrich Widdel, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology, is studying microbes that break down oil hydrocarbons without oxygen, deep down in the sediment. Could they be useful in oil spills?

The regular recurrence of ‘all-time high’ oil prices is clear proof of the finite nature of fossil energy sources.

September 14, 2015 will go down in history. This is the day when researchers first detected gravitational waves – 100 years after Albert Einstein put forward his General Theory of Relativity which predicts such distortions of space-time. They pulled off this sensation with the Advanced LIGO installation, whose sensitivity to the gentle trembling from space is based substantially on technologies and methods thought up by scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics in Hanover and Golm.

Ob Nutzwald oder naturbelassener Wald einen größeren Beitrag zum Klimaschutz leisten können, diskutieren Fachleute heftig. Ernst-Detlef Schulze emeritierter Direktor am max-Planck-institut für Biogeochemie sieht in der Forstwirtschaft größeres Potenzial, den Kimawandel einzudämmen. Andere Wissenschaftler*innen widersprechen dieser Auffassung.

Trying to controvert a seemingly incontrovertible law is a hard job. And Stefan Hell discovered just how hard when he attempted to thwart the resolution limit of optical microscopes.
