On Earth, the second quantum revolution is about to expand our understanding of time-keeping, communication and sensing. Leveraging this revolution for space missions promises to probe up to now inaccessible regimes for a variety of different applications. In order to prepare the necessary technology for space, different microgravity platforms, like drop towers, aircraft or sounding rockets have been intensively used throughout the last almost two decades.
