Towards IAC 2024: Milan hosts “Looking Beyond”, the immersive and digital exhibition discovering the Earth from space

On Monday 27 February 2023, at the STEP FuturAbility District in Milan, the immersive exhibition “Looking Beyond” will be presented in the presence the President of AIDAA-Italian Association of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Erasmo Carrera, the President of the Italian Space Agency, Giorgio Saccoccia and the CEO of Leonardo, Alessandro Profumo. The exhibition “Looking Beyond” is promoted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MAECI) together with the Italian Space Agency (ASI) and Telespazio/e-GEOS.

“Looking Beyond”, presented in Milan in a digital edition, will enable the visitor to experience around 60 spectacular images of our planet acquired by the satellites of the Italian constellation owned by ASI and the Italian Ministry of Defence, COSMO-SkyMed. Divided into four themes – agriculture, city, climate change, and water – the exhibition offers an innovative itinerary through the aid of video walls, projections and 3D effects. The initiative will offer an opportunity to reflect on the contribution of satellite technologies to Earth observation, the promotion of sustainable development, and the protection of natural and cultural heritage.

The exhibition has been on display for a few weeks in over 50 countries at various Italian diplomatic offices. The initiative represents a new step towards IAC 2024!
