The Einstein-Elevator is a research platform for earthbound experiments under zero gravity conditions. Unlike other drop towers, only the experimental vessel is evacuated, and the tower itself is not evacuated, allowing a significantly higher repetition rate to be achieved. In addition, mechanical guides achieve lower rotational movements than in free fall. The first "flight" of the capsule in the Einstein-Elevator took place in October 2019, while research operations began in 2020. The facility is part of the Hannover Institute of Technology at Leibniz University Hannover.
