The Dornier Space Travel Exhibition

SPACE TRAVEL MUSEUM

The New Space Travel Exhibition

Great Moments in Space Travel

There is a new way to experience the departure to outer space in the Dornier Museum!

Our extended Space Travel Exhibition with many multimedia stations extends over 450 squaremetres, and will give you a new perspective on Dornier's departure to space. 

Go on a journey through our solar system with its numerous celestial bodies, like planets and satellites. Gain interesting insights into the development of satellites here at Dornier with the help of our 7 satellite models, some of which are true to scale! It's a truly unique experience to be able to see these technical milestones up close.

The central topics of this exhibition are earth observation, weather, climate and the exploration of the sun and mars. What does space sound like? What does it look like? Exciting questions which will be answered in this exhibition. 

Space exhibition for Kids

Many exciting questions about space and space travel will be answered in the new children's section of the permanent space exhibition at the Dornier Museum. And watch out! Alien rocks from the planet Mars, an extraterrestrial collection, and a LEGO Mars station are waiting for you! 

Dornier the Space-Man

Dornier’s journey to the stars began with the founding of the Dornier System GmbH in 1962, expanding horizons in two directions at once. Not only did Dornier’s scientific research satellites observe space, but they also studied Earth itself. Earth observation satellites provide valuable insights into our environment, the Earth's atmosphere, and the effects of solar radiation and human pollution.

The exhibition’s Space Room showcases Dornier’s path into space. Satellite orbits give visitors a glimpse into the vast complexity of the universe. Over a dozen space and satellite models, including some that have already traveled through space, fill the room. The highlight: an original segment of Spacelab, a space laboratory equipped with material research facilities, completes this walk-through space experience.

Visitors can discover things they have never seen before. They will learn about groundbreaking ideas they have never heard of. And they will meet visionaries whose creativity fascinates and inspires.

At Dornier, the spirit of discovery comes to life!
