- Abstract: The objective of the proposed MAQRO mission is to harness space for achieving
long free-fall times, extreme vacuum, nano-gravity, and cryogenic temperatures
to test the foundations of physics in macroscopic quantum experiments. This
will result in the development of novel quantum sensors and a means to probe
the foundations of quantum physics at the interface with gravity. Earlier
studies showed that the proposal is feasible but that several critical
challenges remain, and key technologies need to be developed. These new
technologies will open up the potential for achieving additional science
objectives. The proposed research campaign aims to advance the state of the art
and to perform the first macroscopic quantum experiments in space. Experiments
on the ground, in micro-gravity, and in space will drive the proposed research
campaign during the current decade to enable the implementation of MAQRO within
the subsequent decade.

We offer an ab-initio estimate of the potential of space-based interferometry with some of the largest systems ever considered and show that there is room for tests of quantum mechanics at an unprecedented level of detail.
