ESA’s Earth from Space exhibit lands in Prague

The Planetarium of Prague has launched Earth from Space, an immersive exhibition by the European Space Agency (ESA), created with partners the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Ars Electronica Solutions. The state-of-the-art interactive exhibit includes four interactive installations that aim to inspire and fuel the curiosity of future generations.

At the heart of the exhibition lies an interactive touch table that turns satellite data from ESA’s Earth Explorer missions, meteorological satellites and the Copernicus programme into eye-catching stories. One of the most striking installations is The Half Globe, a spherical projection of satellite data.

This type of visual, hands-on Earth observation turns complex science into engaging stories which can motivate audiences to take action to protect the planet.
