Mikromuzej is an innovative mobile unit that brings Herman Potocnik Noordung, space exploration and the contributions of Slovenian scientists to the development of space technologies closer to visitors in an accessible and attractive way. With mikromuzej, we bring space closer to a wider range of people, stimulate curiosity, interest in science and technology, and increase the recognition of Noordung Center as a unique educational and cultural institution in Slovenia. It is a modern and sustainable approach that brings knowledge about the universe to where people are.
The micromuseum offers interesting insights into key areas of space research: the life and work of the Pioneer Herman Potocnik Noordung, the development of space technologies throughout history, the basic characteristics of the universe, the formation of stars and galaxies, the contribution of Slovenian companies and scientists to space projects, life on the International Space Station. A special feature of the museum are interactive content such as 3D-printed mock-ups, digital presentations on tablets and the display of real space food.
Conquering space through the visions of Herman Potocnik Noordung will be a popular lecture that presents the life and ideas of one of the most important pioneers of astronautics, Herman Potocnik Noordung. It will be shown in an understandable way how his ideas about the space station, artificial gravity and human habitation in space significantly influenced the development of modern space technologies.
Through the selected examples, historical visions will be linked to today's solutions that encourage reflection on the importance of knowledge, perseverance and long-term thinking. It is aimed at the general public and brings to the fore the power of ideas that were initially purely theoretical, but today represent the foundation of space exploration.,
The exhibition, organized jointly by the Gorizia Cultural Center and the Noordung Center from Vitanji, will be on display until 30. in January 2026, according to the following schedule : (Monday to Friday) from 9.00 to 12.00 and from 16.00 to 18.00, and in the evening during various cultural events .

Mikromuzej je inovativna mobilna enota, ki obiskovalcem in obiskovalkam na dostopen in privlačen način približuje Hermana Potočnika Noordunga, raziskovanje vesolja in prispevke slovenskih znanstvenikov in znanstvenic k razvoju vesoljskih tehnologij. Z mikromuzejem približujemo vesolje širšemu krogu ljudi, spodbujamo radovednost, zanimanje za znanost in tehnologijo ter višamo prepoznavnost Centra Noordung kot edinstvene izobraževalne in kulturne ustanove v Sloveniji. Gre za sodoben in trajnosten pristop, ki znanje o vesolju pripelje tja, kjer so ljudje.
Mikromuzej nudi zanimiv vpogled v ključna področja vesoljskih raziskav: življenje in delo pionirja Hermana Potočnika Noordunga, razvoj vesoljskih tehnologij skozi zgodovino, osnovne značilnosti vesolja, nastanek zvezd in galaksij, prispevek slovenskih podjetij in znanstvenikov ter znanstvenic k vesoljskim projektom, življenje na mednarodni vesoljski postaji. Posebnost muzeja so interaktivne vsebine, kot so 3D-natisnjene makete, digitalne predstavitve na tablicah in prikaz prave vesoljske hrane.
Osvajanje vesolja skozi vizije Hermana Potočnika Noordunga bo poljudno predavanje, ki predstavi življenje in ideje enega najpomembnejših pionirjev astronavtike, Hermana Potočnika Noordunga. Na razumljiv način bo pokazano, kako so njegove zamisli o vesoljski postaji, umetni gravitaciji in bivanju človeka v vesolju bistveno vplivale na razvoj sodobnih vesoljskih tehnologij.
Skozi izbrane primere bodo povezane zgodovinske vizije z današnjimi rešitvami, ki spodbujajo razmislek o pomenu znanja, vztrajnosti in dolgoročnega razmišljanja. Namenjeno je širši javnosti in v ospredje postavlja moč idej, ki so bile sprva zgolj teoretične, danes pa predstavljajo temelj raziskovanja vesolja.,
Razstava, katero prirejata v skupnem sodelovanju Kulturni dom Gorica in Center Noordung iz Vitanji, bo na ogled do 30. januarja 2026 po sledečem urniku : (od ponedeljka do petka) od 9.00 do 12.00 in od 16.00 do 18.00 ure, ter v večernih urah med raznimi kulturnimi prireditvami .
