Underneath Berlin-Mitte, the relics of a space station from the future were discovered in 1995. Upon this revelation a group of researchers, activists, artists and enthusiasts founded the association known as c-base. Their aim is to find new TRACES to enable the further examination and possible reconstruction of this presumably most unique cultural heritage of the future humankind.
