ESERO Austria has been active at the Ars Electronica Center in Linz since 2016 on behalf of ESA and the Austrian Research Promotion Agency FFG. As part of World Space Week, ESERO Austria invites visitors to spend a whole weekend on a journey of discovery into the depths of space.
SA 4.10. – FR 10.10.2025
Admission: valid museum ticket
An extensive program of lectures, workshops, special presentations, and themed tours offers something for space enthusiasts of all ages. This year, we are offering a workshop for children up to 12 years of age for ESA’s Moon Camp creative competition.
On behalf of the European Space Agency (ESA), ESERO Austria supports mentors (teachers, educators, group leaders, leisure facilities, etc.) in using the fascination of space to inspire young people to take an interest in STEM subjects. The wide range of offerings includes challenging competitions for students, helpful teaching materials and training for teachers, and other unique offerings for schools and leisure time.
