Expedition Solar System

Discover new worlds …

ETH Zurich is at the forefront of three space missions. Hop on board and join us!

We will take off on a journey to the Moon, to Mars, to Venus and all the way to the edge of our solar system. What will we discover? And how will we get there? We teamed up with our scientists to develop exciting stories about what they are searching for and finding out there, what motivates them, and how they are able to look deep into the interiors of planets millions of kilometres away.

In our exhibition, researchers become the ‘heroes’ of their own stories. They introduce themselves and show you how research really works. The stories are presented in the form of comics combining art and science – a fun way for experts and non-experts alike to discover the science of our planetary environment.

Exciting experiments, animations, an Augmented Reality scavenger hunt for a little Marsian, workshops and public talks will round off your journey into space. All science stories are available for purchase in form of a comic book in English, German, French or Italian. 

We look forward to your visit!
