Kinder-Uni: "Was ist der Urknall?"

In the organizer's words:

How did our universe actually come into being? Researchers assume that everything started with the so-called "Big Bang". In English, this is also known as the "big bang". Since then, the universe has been expanding and gravity has created galaxies and stars. But what did the universe look like in the past and how and where did it start? In his lecture at the Children's University, Prof. Dr. Jan Louis will take you on a journey to the Big Bang and explain the various findings and discoveries that research has made.

The Children's University Hamburg is a joint initiative of the University of Hamburg and the ETV Kinder- und Jugendförderung. It is funded by the federal and state governments as part of the Excellence Strategy.

The lectures on exciting research topics at the university are aimed at children between the ages of eight and twelve. After the lectures, the young students have the opportunity to ask questions. As a rule, the events last one hour, including a question and answer session.

Registration is not necessary. Please note that children must be accompanied by an adult when attending the Children's University.
