Confirming its structure required isolating enough Cgo to apply modern techniques of structure determination. A quantum leap in fullerene research came in 1990 when a team led by Wolfgang Kratschmer of the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg and Donald Huffman of the University of Arizona successfully prepared buckmin-sterfullerene in amounts sufficient for its isolation, purification, and detailed study. Not only was the buckminsterfullerene structure shown to be correct.

A corroboration of the theory that the moon was formed mostly from material coming from the Earth is due to researchers from the Max Planck Institute for chemistry in Mainz (Mtinker et al., 2003). The chemical analysis of material from the surface of the moon shows great similarity with material from the Earth s crust however, there are certain differences. For example, the concentration of iron on the moon is much lower than that on Earth. 

Stardust February 7, 1999, saw the start of NASA s Stardust mission the cometary probe, the first mission to collect cosmic dust and return the sample to Earth, has a time-of-flight mass spectrometer (CIDA, Cometary and Interstellar Dust Analyser) on board. This analyses the ions which are formed when cosmic dust particles hit the instrument s surface. In June 2004, the probe reached its goal, the comet 8 IPAVild 2, getting as close as 236 km The CIDA instrument, which was developed at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Garching (near Munich), studied both cometary dust and interstellar star dust.
