Mission 2026

The most striking science news of the past year She turned 40 in 2026. Halfway? According to statistics, yes. And for people who think they are already past the halfway point, the reflex is often; I have to take stock. And that is what Hetty did for this performance, with her scientific craving for knowledge as a common thread. Does science remain that loyal ally in the second half of her life? What if she gets a diagnosis at 75 for which there is no treatment yet? Will that latest laundry-folding robot, for which the basis was perhaps laid in 2026, be a blessing by then… or just an extra appliance that we have to descale? And will her childlike enthusiasm for the new and ever-further exploration of space remain intact? Hetty’s hope, humor, and wonder come together again in Missie 2026. She looks at the most striking scientific events of 2026 in her own way. Voice of the Nerdland Podcast, author of several bestsellers, and the woman who has been filling halls for five years in a row… you don't need more reasons to want to be here. You don't have to be a nerd, just curious. A full-grown show that sends you into the future with much more knowledge and a solid straw of hope. Hetty Helsmoortel is firmly on course to become the favorite science comedian. - in Knack Focus
