Take a virtual journey across the surface of Mars, Saturn’s moon Enceladus, and through the solar system. In 3D environments developed specifically by and in collaboration with the FU, you can fly over the Martian landscape, dive into its deep canyons, fly along the massive ice plumes of Saturn’s moon Enceladus, or take a virtual dive into its interior. Based on scientific analyses of the outer characteristics of this icy moon, this creative visualization offers a fascinating journey into an extraterrestrial world and highlights its importance for Earth.
Participation in the VR missions is limited. You can book a slot online in advance using this link for free: https://booking.planet.fu-berlin.de
