Juister Sternstunden - Bildershow: Gibt es außerirdisches Leben?

12.08.2026 - 12.08.2026

Right on the North Sea island of Juist, we seem to be so close to heaven. The perfect opportunity to address exciting questions: 

We make the distances in the universe tangible. Let's imagine the sun as a grapefruit, for example. How big and how far away would the Earth and the other planets be? Is there life outside our globe? What is the current state of science?
The Earth as a sphere: Are the people of New Zealand upside down? And what is the curvature of the earth anyway?We love satnav, but how could we navigate before GPS was invented?Juist lies on the 7th longitude and the 54th latitude. Which places are on the same longitude or latitude? What do these places have in common?Technical term "bingo": We clarify technical terms such as celestial equator, ecliptic and many others. We decide together which topics we will talk about.

Meeting point: at the Haus des Kurgastes.
Duration: approx. 1.5 hours
Costs: Adults - €5, under 18s / severely disabled - €3 incl. coffee, tea, biscuits
