More than 13,000 satellites now orbit the Earth. What was once reserved for military and intelligence services is now opening up ever new applications for journalists to conduct research from space. At the Publix Open House, Marcus Pfeil, Co-Founder of satellite start-up Vertical52, and Leon Scharfenberg from the Visual Desk of Süddeutsche Zeitung will tell us about these stories from space.
