Humanity's Quest for Planetary Exploration

Join Paul on a look into the past, present and future of humanity's efforts to reach and explore the other planets in the solar system besides our homeworld! Mars, Venus and even far off icy worlds like Jupiter and its moons.

Where will it lead us? Are we ready to become an interplanetary species?

If you're in Munich and would like to learn more, don't miss the chance to hear Paul's excellent talks about the topic at the Volkssternwarte München!
