What will tomorrow’s energy supply look like—and what aspects of it are already a reality in Jena today? The City of Jena’s exhibition “ENERGY—WHAT MOVES US” provides answers to these and other questions about the energy transition.
Collection items, forest maps, museum inventories: Experience firsthand how we’re using AI to digitally catalog Thuringia’s cultural treasures. And beneath the ThULB, the Fürstenkeller—dating back to 1532—awaits exploration—one of the largest vaulted cellars in Germany.

Y-Space is a research project aimed at developing a UAV carrier platform capable of briefly generating true microgravity (≤ 0.1 g, up to 10 seconds, 3 kg payload). The goal is to create a mobile, cost-effective alternative to parabolic flights.
Insects are by far the most species-rich class of animals. They inhabit the most unusual habitats. But what makes them so successful? We introduce the subjects of our research and discuss their lifestyles and their contribution to science.
The exhibition “Images of Science” features fascinating research images from the EAH Jena that are not only scientifically compelling but also aesthetically inspiring.
