Prof. Dr. Philipp Reiss

As a professor of Lunar and Planetary Exploration at TUM, my goal is to develop and expand our knowledge and capabilities in space science and exploration. The overarching motivation of my research emerges from three main aspects: developing a better understanding of volatiles on planetary bodies, building the instrumentation to enable their in situ characterisation, and developing means to extract and utilise such resources.

As a PhD candidate in the Chair of Lunar and Planetary Exploration at TUM, I focus on understanding the lunar water cycle. I investigate the physical processes that drive water migration across the Moon’s surface and within its subsoil, using numerical simulations to explore how these mechanisms influence the distribution and stability of lunar volatiles.
