20 Years of Children's University - Katharina Brinkert was part of Humans on Mars.

The professor for Human Space Exploration Technologies at the Centre for Applied Space Technology and Microgravity (ZARM) was faced with a clearly younger audience than usual and provided insights into her research and the Humans on Mars initiative.

The children from Bremer high schools were initially shocked to hear how hostile the Martian environment is. Do jackets worn over the space suit help against the incredible cold temperatures? How much chocolate would fit into a rocket - and would that be enough for the round trip? The students were enthusiastic and learned a lot from Katharina Brinkert - including how her research on Earth will be useful.
