Unknown Worlds: Distant planets between imagination and science

Podium discussion Thursday 06.07.2023 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.
Guest: Prof. Dr. Heike Rauer
Location: Kulturforum

And conversely, the question: How will these imaginations change under the influence of the latest scientific findings?

Our SPP 1992 coordinator Heike Rauer, Director of the German Aerospace Center (DLR), Institute of Planetary Research Berlin, will be there.
