Yuri’s Night Switzerland (Zürich)

On April 12, 1961, the cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was the first human in outer space.

In order to celebrate his brave exploits, there are annual space parties every April 12, all around the world! This year in Zürich, you will get to travel around our universe in a variety of short talks by astrophysicists, space engineers, and even Switzerland’s very own astronaut!

You will discover how astronauts are trained, how far we can travel into space with our latest technology and what the new projects for space exploration are. Meet the speakers face to face and ask them your own questions.
