Zusammenfassung:
Icy bodies with subsurface oceans are a prime target for astrobiology
investigations, with an increasing number of scientists participating in the
planning, development, and realization of space missions to these worlds. Within
Germany, the Ocean Worlds and Icy Moons working group of the German
Astrobiology Society provides an invaluable platform for scientists and engineers
from universities and other organizations with a passion for icy ocean worlds to
share knowledge and start collaborations. We here present an overview about
astrobiology research activities related to icy ocean worlds conducted either
in Germany or in strong collaboration with scientists in Germany. With recent
developments, Germany offers itself as a partner to contribute to icy ocean
world missions.
