Please note that the lecture will be given in German.
On Thursday, starting at 8 p.m., Dr. Mirko Krumpe's lecture on the topic "...what you didn't know about the Apollo missions" from the Babelsberg Starry Night series will be online.
20 July marks the anniversary of the first successful landing on the Moon. Today, humankind is again preparing to land on the Earth's satellite. Using the Apollo missions as an example, Mirko Krumpe shows how many ambitious test flights were necessary and still are today before a moon landing can be successfully carried out. The lecture also looks at problems in the missions after Apollo 11 and highlights aspects that are not known to everyone.
On the 3rd Thursday of each month from 8 p.m., the Babelsberg Starry Night lectures are available at

or via the YouTube channel Urknall, Weltall und das Leben (Big bang, the Universe and Life) and can be viewed at any time afterwards.
