Η Google, suggests going back to the moon. Primary school and even kindergarten children have been visiting the "Hellenic World" Cultural Center since March 22, 2014, where a complete, and above all exciting, exhibition is being hosted that convinces the young students that they will experience the establishment of the first human colony on the Moon, that the first space elevator will be built, and that they can start practicing for one taxion the Red Planet.
Η έκθεση ονομάζεται «Η Κατάκτηση του Διαστήματος», μια κατάκτηση που έχει θεμελιωθεί ήδη από την αποστολή του σοβιετικού δορυφόρου Sputnik 1, από όπου ξεκινά το trip προς το διάστημα.
The most important acquisition of a family or school visit to Piraeus 254 is the feeling that space exploration is not only over, but it is in a very interesting phase. The visitor will look at the moon at night with other eyes, smelling the Moon's powder, seeing Bigelow's standard residence, representing a whole human colony at the south pole of the Earth's satellite, and calming his fears seeing that with a space elevator he would be able to go flying on the Earth without having 46.000 dollars to bring a pan to his family's Bigelow.

The visitor will then "wear" the astronaut's new (lightweight) outfit to photograph and put himself in a series of trials to be able to travel to Mars. Answers to many questions about life on Mars undertake to give a series of representations of how astronauts sleep and eat in a zero-gravity environment. The tour ends in an interactive multi-touch table, where the visitor is now invited to create atmosphere to start cultivating on the distant planet.
"The Conquest of Space" exhibition is a creation of the American Museum of Natural History in New York in collaboration with MadaTech, the National Museum of Science, Technology and Space of Israel (MadaTech, Haifa, Israel).
Within the framework of the exhibition, the Hellenic Cosmos is collaborating with the Institute of Astronomy, Astrophysics, Space Applications and Remote Sensing of the National Observatory of Athens. This means that the Observatory participates in the exhibition with an informative video on astronomy (our solar system and stellar evolution), a digital exhibition photoς (20 Έλληνες αστροφωτογράφοι φωτογραφίζουν τον νυχτερινό ουρανό) και οπτικοακουστική presentation with sounds from space (compositions of modern electronic music based on sounds from our near and not so near space). Also, lectures are planned with free admission and observation of the night sky from the atrium of the cultural center. The first speech is scheduled for April 11, 2014 at 18:00 with the speaker Mr. Vassilis Charmandaris, Associate Professor, Director of the Institute entitled "Searching for Truth with Light". Mr. Charmandaris will explain how astronomers use the light of the sun and stars to understand some of the properties of the universe and to predict, with sufficient accuracy, its future.
The first big step for humanity should not be the last
