Press conference

Today we held a press conference to introduce the PEGASOS project and the Zeppelin mission to journalists. The main objectives of PEGASOS were discussed and the Zeppelin mission was introduced both from the perspective of the scientists and the pilots. A tour through the hangar gave impressions of the ongoing test campaign. Also the Zeppelin NT that is currently built up in the hangar and will be used for our campaigns in 2012 and 2013 was shown to the journalists.
