oberpfaffenhofen

Oberpfaffenhofen is a village which is part of the municipality of Weßling in the district of Starnberg, Bavaria, Germany. The village is home to a major site of the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fr Luft- und Raumfahrt, DLR) and became hence known to a wide audience when, in 1983 the first German astronaut, the physicist Ulf Merbold flew to space on board a Space Shuttle in the context of the Spacelab missions. These missions were partly supervised by Oberpfaffenhofen ground control.¹ The research centre in Oberpfaffenhofen is fairly large, not only housing the DLR, but also Fraunhofer Institutes and other scientific institutes. ¹ Only the scientific mission control was in Oberpfaffenhofen, the technical stayed with NASA in Houston.
