The Polish Space Agency, which co-financed the project, was involved in testing the rocket.

The ECOSYSTEM is a prestigious European Defence Fund project. It will result in an independent European supply chain for advanced infrared detector technology.

Łukasiewicz - ICSO is working with Onlybio. A team of scientists carries out research concerning the development of natural cosmetics using grape pomace generated as a by-product of wine production.

Łukasiewicz - IMiF researchers have been developing graphene technologies for years. Today we present to you GET, another brand, this time based on epitaxial graphene.

Scientists will develop innovative biocarbon lubricants. Their main advantages are the replacement of non-renewable fossil raw materials with new ones, produced by pyrolysis of plant biomass waste. Such a solution will translate into a lower carbon footprint of the final product.

On the occasion of Children's Day, we asked the children several questions. Among them, the question ‘Do you want to be an adult already?’, and the answers we heard were sometimes surprising.
