All participant of the International Space Exploration Conference 2007, will be welcomed by ESA and DLR for a banquet dinner on Thursday night, 8 November starting at 20:30 at the conference venue axica.

After the first day of our conference we would like to invite you for a moment of relaxation in the beautiful environment of the axica building. We would like to give you the opportunity to really enjoy Berlin’s outstanding congress centre at no. 3 Pariser Platz. The exceptional architecture of axica, designed by the famous architect Frank O. Gehry will take your breath away, especially as we are going to rearrange some tiny details during the evening to make it even more atmospheric than normal. Be surprised and re-experience the location literally under a new light, when it is lit up by coloured beams and set-up with interesting furniture. The service team of axica will try its best to provide you with a special gourmet experience. Regional food and well selected German wines will be served. Take a little break from the busy conference day and enjoy the evening with inspiring talks, admiration of space art and multimedia projection. Join us for an experience out of this world!
