KSEVT
The Cultural Centre of European Space Technologies (KSEVT) programme focus is the research and development of a programme dedicated to space culturalization. KSEVT is the only institute in the world which systematically enables continuous dialogue between artists and scientists to create awareness about space culturalization and at the same time foster visibility towards the complexities of cultural understanding next to the existing technological development within space exploration.

KSEVT recognizes itself – within the existing space programs structure – as an organization that enables the development of a framework for future cultural space programmes and promotes its implementation in the existing activities of space exploration and cultural development.
