Hosted in partnership with Thomas Piron Luxembourg and partners.
This hybrid event will be held both in person and online, connecting audiences in Luxembourg and Arizona.
Join us for the film screening of Becoming Interplanetary, a film shaped by research conducted at Arizona State University and more than 20 expert interviews, led by Dr. Elena Rocchi and astronaut Chris Hadfield. The movie invites viewers to rethink the meaning of exploration and encourages bold reflection on what it truly means to reach for the unknown. Science, art and philosophy entwine on screen as the boundaries of human exploration are challenged and reframed.
