On Friday, March 28, 2025, Michael had the honor of taking the stage at TEDxDresden to present his idea of how space technology can significantly reduce the water footprint in agriculture. A project that would be hard to imagine without NewSpace, and admittedly not entirely trivial.

But the talk wasn’t just about presenting facts and figures, it was also about sharing Michael’s enthusiasm for the possibilities of modern space exploration with the audience. And what can we say? There were 300 people sitting in front of him who not only listened with interest, but whose feedback overwhelmed him. Not only the countless conversations off stage, but also the many personal messages show that it is worth believing in your idea and working on it consistently.

If you missed the event, you can watch Michael’s TED Talk (in German) on YouTube.
