Author Information

Manfred Gottwald studied astronomy and physics at Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich. He received his PhD from the Technical University of Munich. In 1991, he moved to the German Aerospace Center (DLR). There, the solar system and particularly our home planet Earth became his research fields. Since 2012, when the first digital elevation model data from the TanDEM-X mission, a twin radar X-band configuration operated and controlled by DLR, became available, he has been engaged in the study of terrestrial impact structures. The digital elevation model allowed, for the first time, the publication of a topographic atlas of all impacts still existing on Earth. In September 2018, he retired from DLR but continues to work in the field of terrestrial impact structures. His numerous publications, in the form of lectures, articles, and books, cater to both the scientific community and the interested public, covering the entire universe – from its distant edge to the surface of our home planet.
