How can I have another Terminal open when I am at my server by ssh?
I do not want to type my password twice to get another terminal for my server.
Perhaps, Bash has buffers similarly as Vim.

Check out GNU screen. It’s kind of arcane and awkward to use, but does what you’re looking for, and it’s probably also installed on your server.
You can also forward X11 and run multiple
xterminstances, but that’s a pain.Your best bet, though, is your proverbial ‘type my password every time’ solution: you should set up SSH keys so you don’t need to type your password every time and then just use multiple connections in Terminal tabs.
