Virtual Babelsberg Starry Nights

The Babelsberg Starry Nights are now taking place online. Usually we publish a new lecture by a scientist of the AIP every 3rd Thursday of the month. The lecture will be broadcast on the YouTube channel Urknall, Weltall und das Leben (Big Bang, Universe and Life) or videowissen starting at 8 pm (playlist). As soon as the new lecture is available, the link can be found directly on this page. Please note that nearly all talks are in German. If lectures take place live (and are not broadcast on YouTube), e.g. in the lecture hall at AIP, they are marked accordingly with "LIVE".
