Michael Hochfellner

An absolute must‑see exhibition that offers fascinating bird’s‑eye perspectives and unique insights into the world of an astronaut. Especially impressive are the depictions of life on the ISS—from daily challenges in space to breathtaking images of our planet from orbit.

Martin Schönbauer

I’m absolutely thrilled by this exhibition! The images are so impressive and multifaceted—I could have stayed forever. I spent almost two hours there and enjoyed every single picture. The story of astronaut Terry Virts adds a personal touch (and via the app you can listen to many of his stories about the individual images—so don’t forget your phone!). I can truly recommend the exhibition to anyone who wants to see our world from a very unique perspective.

Rionaldo Hager

This is the most fascinating space show I’ve ever attended. The organizers put great effort into conveying knowledge, and their attention to detail truly paid off. The images are unique and breathtaking. I’ll definitely come back to see the show a second time.

Ingo Hofmann

Great exhibition with uniquely beautiful and special images! Fascinating to follow the astronaut’s journey through his eyes and images—from army pilot to the Moon and back! Absolutely recommended!!!

Matthias Schweinzer

Great exhibition! I went with two children, and we found the photo journey from astronaut training to landing fascinating. We were especially impressed by the landscape shots.
