European Commission's Copernicus program for earth observation is not only about big data, but also about big ideas. TEDxRheinMain's Datanauts initiative is a proven concept dedicated to spark the creation of great ideas. Leveraging visionary thinking, talent and skills using custom-tailored ideation tools. We are looking for visionaries to bring this two opportunities together.

"To know that we know what we
know, and to know that we do
not know what we do not know,
that is true knowledge.“
Nicolaus Copernicus (1473 – 1543)
mathematician & astronomer
EPILOG
3. 3
The prime directive of wisdom also applies to the relationship we have to
our home and cradle: Earth. Much have we learned already, but the
European Commission's Copernicus program* that aims is building an
autonomous, multi-level operational Earth observation capacity, promises
to deliver so much more!
Copernicus is not only about big data, but also about big opportunities. A
fact way to few people know by now. The challenge is to convert big data
into big ideas, to get people involved, people with ideas! That includes
data experts, but not exclusively. Because good ideas may originate from
the most unexpected places.

STATUS & TIMELINE
The prototype. Call it the Schiaparelli lander* of the
Datanauts universe: being a successful series of events
leading up to the big TEDxRheinMain conference, it
was also a demonstrator for our capability to spread the
message, entertain and involve.

Looking for partners. Preparing for Launch means to get
everybody on board needed for a successful Datanauts
mission. Because without the energy needed, it won't get off
the launch pad, let alone reach escape velocity.
Launch of Datanautsx
If all goes well, we can be ready for
launch by late summer / early fall of 2016. Our systems have
been readied, we are waiting for our partners.
