AUTHOR INFORMATION
Tobias Schüttler (tobias.schuettler@dlr.de) works at the
German Aerospace Center, promoting young talent. He is
currently studying for his doctorate at the Chair of Physics
Education of Ludwig Maximilian University, Munich. His
research interests are extracurricular physics teaching
and learning in the context of space technologies and
gifted education.
Shimrit Maman (tiroshs@bgu.ac.il) is a research associate at the Homeland Security Research Institute and director of the Earth and Planetary Image Facility at Ben-Gurion
University of the Negev, Israel. She is a remote sensing and
aeolian geomorphology specialist, and her research deals
with planetary remote sensing, GIT technologies, and climate change. She is also part of the research team leading
BGUSAT, Israeli academia's first nanosatellite, and she leads
a variety of educational outreach programs that aim to ignite the scientific curiosity of students and strengthen
their understanding in spatial, space, and environmental sciences.
Raimund Girwidz (girwidz@lmu.de) is a full professor of
physics and physics education at the University of Education Ludwigsburg, Germany, where he has been vice president since 2008. Since 2011, he has been full professor and
chair of physics education at Ludwig Maximilian University, Munich. His research interests include modern sensors in physics education and use of multimedia in physics
teaching and learning.
