When Water Means Life
Meet the Scientist with Michael Waltemathe

Water is considered one of the most important prerequisites for life, including in the search for life beyond Earth. At the same time, water in space is not merely a scientific finding or a technical resource, but also a culturally and ethically charged issue: Who has the right to use, protect, or explore extraterrestrial water resources? This lecture explores the images of life in space that are familiar to us from the media, science fiction, and public space communication—and the ethical questions underlying them. The focus is on how we can discuss possible extraterrestrial life, planetary environments, and human responsibility in space without hastily reducing these topics to categories of discovery, use, or ownership.
