The new presentation of the German Space Exhibition in Vogtland planned for summer 2026 will be delayed by a few months. The opening is currently planned for spring 2027, said exhibition director Katrin Trommer. This has nothing to do with construction delays, but rather with the preparatory work for the new exhibition. The aim is to design everything optimally and to incorporate a lot of scientific work.
Topping-out ceremony for the extension
According to the information provided, the shell of the extension is complete and the interior work has now begun. The topping-out ceremony will be celebrated this Monday. The costs have so far been estimated at 8.7 million euros. They are being borne by the federal and state governments.
An interactive exhibition entitled "Mission Space" is planned. Visitors will be able to go on a tour like a space traveler through various stations for their own mission. At the end, they will be given an impressive view of the Earth via satellite images.
