PRISM wins the AI special prize at Hessen Ideen
Team PRISM, from Justus Liebig University Giessen, won the KI‑Sonderpreis, the special prize for artificial intelligence, in the Hessen Ideen competition 2026.
First privately funded project: PFAS‑free polymers
Mirdyne has signed its first privately funded project, with an industrial partner under NDA. We will design PFAS‑free polymers with PRISM, to replace “forever chemicals”. Work starts next.
PRISM Alpha kicks off
PRISM Alpha has started: a project in ESA’s Future Launchers Preparatory Programme (FLPP), led by Bimo Tech with ArianeGroup, Fraunhofer IAPT and amsight. It is the first project built around the full PRISM loop, for European space transport. The award ceremony was held in October.

Project SPARK: our first alloys are real
In SPARK, an ESA project led by Bimo Tech, eight candidate alloys from our early screening were narrowed to two and made as real metal. Testing continues.
PRISM put to ESA
We submitted PRISM to ESA’s Open Space Innovation Platform (OSIP), where ESA collects new ideas. PRISM Alpha, which followed, is a larger project, in ESA’s launcher programme FLPP.
