DER KLEINE MAJOR TOM - AUFBRUCH INS UNGEWISSE

In the organizer's words:

A mission in space to monitor a hurricane on Earth.

In the year 2053, teenage friends Tom and Stella live on the Space Camp 1 space station, training for life as astronauts as they orbit the Earth. Stella is always ready to take on any challenge, but Tom panics at the thought of his first spacewalk.
But when a powerful hurricane brews on Earth, Tom has to rise above himself and go on a dangerous mission. The weather satellite, which is crucial for monitoring the hurricane, is out of action. Tom and Stella are the only team available who can get it working again. And they only have 48 hours. If Tom and Stella fail, the consequences would be catastrophic for them - and for the Earth!

The story is the perfect combination of great storytelling and fascinating information about a conceivable future for humans in space. But the focus is also on Earth, and possible consequences of climate change are described.

This new adventurous episode of the popular children's book series "THE LITTLE MAJOR TOM" is available exclusively at the Planetarium and is exciting for the whole family. The book series has been published by Tessloff-Verlag since 2018 and volumes 1, 3 and 6 are also available in our Planetarium store.

"Der kleine Major Tom - Aufbruch ins Ungewisse" was written by Dr. Peter Popp from Reef Distribution in collaboration with the well-known musician Peter Schilling, whose international song "Major Tom (Coming Home)" accompanies the story.
