Description

New worlds and new exploration…these words fascinate us and inspire us just as much as ever! They stand for discovery and scientific and technological progress. They open the door to new ways of thinking about how to shape our future on Earth or elsewhere. Take a dive into the very heart of the latest scientific underwater and space explorations of the 21st century! Satellites, living capsules, on-board instruments, and robots must all be completely reliable and autonomous, often for a long time. Learn more about how these explorations in extreme and harsh environments rely on cutting-edge technology to constantly push boundaries and redefine what is possible. What technological developments and technology transfer will be necessary? Can manned underwater or space travel push us to new and higher levels of knowledge? And how can we combine the quest for new research and progress with environmental concerns?
