Raum und Zeit

In the organizer's words:

Ready for the final frontier?

An old dream is within reach: humans are using asteroids as a source of raw materials, colonizing Mars and advancing into distant galaxies.

But the human body is not made for life in space and not all the technical questions have been answered yet.
So will we only colonize space with machines or not at all? Of course, nothing works here without an exhibit that has already left this earth. The Soviet Foton 1 space capsule completed its unmanned, twelve-day flight through space back in 1985. The insights gained back then still inspire the imagination today. Ring-shaped space stations capable of generating artificial gravity first appeared in science fiction. Today, NASA is actively researching their feasibility, as a model of the "Nautilus-X" space station shows.
Research is also being carried out into connecting orbital space stations via space elevators, with initial developments such as the WARR capable of transporting four times its own weight. What does it feel like to steer a Mars rover on an exploration trip? The hands-on station reveals.
The fact that all our ambitions in space will not remain without consequences for the Earth is vividly conveyed by a station that analyzes the effects of space debris based on actual impacts on Earth.
