The special exhibition was officially opened on 4 July with words of welcome from the director of the museum, Dr. Simone Blaschka, the mayor of Bremen, Dr. Andreas Bovenschulte, and a keynote speech from Dr. Thomas Reiter. The exhibition shows a wide range of space-related topics, starting with social and political questions about space exploration, the challenges posed by inhospitable living conditions, current space research at the University of Bremen and reflections on art and science fiction.

We are delighted that our scientists Prof. Dr. Katharina Brinkert, Dr. Christiane Heinicke and Dr. Abootaleb Safdari were able to contribute to this successful exhibition and would like to thank the team at the German Emigration Center for the exciting collaboration!
