As ESA is preparing the themes and topics for the upcoming ministerial Space19+, we used fictional storytelling as a tool to demonstrate the reasons why action needs to be taken to defend against dangers from space.

The second edition of the PhiWeek Bootcamp has just come to an end. Hosted by the European Space Agency (ESA) and Pi School in the course of the PhiWeek (6-10 September 2019), the goal of the event was to explore the scope of Earth Observation data by non-space industries by example through an industry or company relevant challenge, set by the official challenge partner.

Do you think you have what it takes to solve a big industry challenge using earth observation data? Apply now to join an intensive 5-day action-packed design sprint to prototype a solution, test it on real users and present to a jury. 

Through our creative spirit, Design & Data is always keen to take on new challenges to become thought leaders for the space and science industry. We have prepared a showreel, which highlights some of our more interesting work over the last two years – from documentary series to event organisation, 3D animations and immersive video.

Based on our work on the ESA cartoon series “The Adventures of Rosetta & Philae”, we are happy to announce the first full feature full-dome movie that we have produced can now be watched in planetaria around the world.

The European Space Agency (ESA) has released a further update of their Interactive Guide to the Moon following work by Design & Data, including a new home screen, rework of the artwork and background music.

Following the great success of the PhiWeek Bootcamp, we are pleased to showcase the highlights of the event through a new video and a summary report. 38 participants from over 10 countries showed the high international resonance. For many participants, this cultural diversity contributed to the success of the event and to the development of innovative and groundbreaking business ideas.

German ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst is scheduled to return to Earth tomorrow (20 December) with his crewmates, NASA astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergei Prokopyev. On the morning of Saturday 22 December 2018, media are invited to attend a press conference at ESA’s European Astronaut Centre in Cologne. Design & Data will be providing the livestream for ESA.

Asteroid Day is a UN-sanctioned global awareness campaign with thousands of independent events being organised all around the world on 30th June each year. Design & Data GmbH produced a number of video clips for ESA, which were shown as part of a two-hour live webcast.

On the occasion of the ESA Φ-week, Design & Data GmbH is organising a Bootcamp on behalf of the European Space Agency (ESA) for aspiring entrepreneurs supporting the development of innovative business ideas using Earth Observation (EO) from space to address some of the information needs of the food and energy sectors.
