SPACEBUZZ ONE stops in Jena
Experience virtual space travel: Virtual space travel with Alexander Gerst and Matthias Maurer
With the SPACEBUZZ ONE, an innovative educational project from the German Space Agency at DLR that is unique in Germany is coming to Jena.
SPACEBUZZ ONE is a walk-in high-tech truck that resembles a rocket on the outside and is equipped with state-of-the-art virtual reality technology on the inside. Visitors take a seat on movable seats, put on VR goggles and experience a 15-minute space flight: from Earth to orbit, on to the moon and finally back to our home planet.
The journey is accompanied virtually by ESA astronauts Alexander Gerst and Matthias Maurer, who provide an authentic insight into the perspective of real space travelers.
The aim of the project is to promote scientific education and at the same time raise awareness of global connections and environmental changes. These developments are made visually tangible during the space flight – an emotional approach to urgent questions about climate and sustainability.
