Autumn and Winter 2024/25
Two primary school classes from the third grade visited the museum multiple times. Together with the educators and a space architect, they explored ideas about living and housing in space.
What needs would have to be considered? What might a suitable habitat look like, and what would it require? The children explored habitat models at the TMW, compared various earthly living spaces with their own daily lives, developed and sketched their visions, discussed them, and finally built models.They presented their models to one another and debated what would be essential for them and their imagined lives in 'outer space.' Not only their classmates, but also our 'extraterrestrial' guest Cervupci, were curious to see which needs the children prioritized, what they documented in their research journals, and how they reached compromises as a construction team. The models were even covered with real satellite foil to ensure the multifunctional spaces of the habitatssleeping, working and playing, bathing, etc.were well protected. In the 'scream cabin,' the students reached up to 123 decibelsdoes their home on Mars need soundproofing?
