Invitation to share innovations and future perspectives

Hi everyone,

Thank you for the great interest for this group. I would like to take this opportunity to invite you to an in-person meeting on October 9, 2026, starting at 6:00 PM at Café Miki (Bürgerplatz 12, 85748 Garching; a 3-minute walk from the Garching U6 station). The goal is to exchange initial thoughts, ideas, and perspectives on various topics within a small group setting.

The meeting would begin with a brief introduction to key questions, followed by a group discussion. A focus will be on getting to know one another within a relaxed atmosphere where experiences, perspectives, and ideas can come together.

Exemplary topics could be future long-term solutions for crewed space missions and their potential application in terrestrial crisis and emergency habitats, as well as the scientific and technological steps required to achieve this. Of course, we can also speak about other related issues, current research approaches, and exciting developments.

To ensure a good conversation flow, I would like to limit the group size to a maximum of ten people. If desired, we can organize a follow-up session if not everyone is able to attend the first one. As last time, let's decide the communication language on your preferences.

I'm looking forward to explore the latest developments together, hearing all possible perspectives, and getting to know the group. All the best, and see you soon!

Best regards,
Christian
