In the organizer's words:

With the naked eye you can see a few thousand stars, the shining band of the Milky Way and a few small nebulae in the sky. It was only with telescopes that it became possible to reveal the nature of the Milky Way as a huge cloud of stars. A dispute arose over some of the nebulae: do they simply represent gas clouds or are they star clouds far outside the Milky Way?

The Milky Way system is the entire cosmos! That's what people thought 100 years ago. But in reality, the cosmos is filled with billions of "siblings" of the Milky Way - distant other galaxies. The path to this realization, which we take for granted today, was long, difficult, but above all exciting! And it led to the discovery of the cosmic beginning, which we call the "Big Bang".

Take a look with us into the regions beyond the Milky Way! Learn interesting facts about the size and structure of the cosmos and about the question of whether we can see everything in the cosmos at all or are trapped in a kind of bubble of space and time...
