Each issue is presenting news in astronomy and space research by using fantastic astro pictures. Today, SuW is the biggest popular journal in the German-speaking area with about 50'000 readers. One secret of its success is that scientists directly contribute by themselves and write the articles. In addition, SuW has established strong links to teachers and schools via the programme »Wissenschaft in die Schulen!«. Dr. Andreas Mueller, an astrophysicist educated in Heidelberg, has started as SuW's editor-in-chief in April 2019. He will present the journal, give insights into the work of an editor and talk about recent developments and the future of SuW.[[BR]][[BR]]Presentation: German[[BR]]Slides: English[[BR]]Questions: German, English || || 03.10.2022 || Holiday || -- || || 10.10.2022 || Institute Meeting || -- || || 17.10.2022 || Caroline Kulcsár[[BR]](Institut d'Optique Graduate School Université Paris-Saclay) || TBD || || 24.10.2022 || -- || '''--''' || || 31.10.2022 || Thomas Jackson[[BR]](Tuparev !AstroTech) || '''Tuparev !AstroTech - Software, Space Junk and (Robotic) Telescopes'''[[BR]][[BR]]Astronomy as a career has been, for the majority of people involved, a classically academic pursuit so far, however there are increasingly wide-spread applications in other directions. Today, potential markets range from the already bustling amateur astronomy scene to rapidly growing wide scale industrial applications.[[BR]][[BR]]We at Tuparev !AstroTech and Astrosysteme Austria are involved in projects spanning this whole spectrum. On the industrial side, the increasing amount of satellites in orbit and the rising amounts of space debris mean the space around the Earth could rapidly be rendered unusable. As part of this effort, we are attempting to create a large, worldwide network to monitor satellites and space junk, covering regimes not included in the current generation of monitoring programs.[[BR]][[BR]]We are involved in every step from manufacturing and setting up the telescopes, to developing the pipeline for detecting and determining properties of such objects, through to the expected petabyte database management. For amateur and professional astronomers, we are developing a range of inter-connected, modern astronomy tools and applications as well as being involved in renovating old observatory facilities as well as locating potential sites for new observatories.[[BR]][[BR]]In this talk, I will give an overview of some of the projects we are involved in as well as some of the wider market out there.
