Is the moon there when nobody looks?

For Kinderuni Saar we have created a contribution on the topic of quantum physics. We cover the topics measurement process in quantum physics, superposition states and realism - prepared for a young audience. The video "Ist der Mond auch da, wenn keiner hinschaut" (in German) is available on Youtube as well as a video of the visit of a school class in Homburg and an accompanying booklet (in German). The video and the school visit were also a contribution to the BMBF-funded project QUANTAG - Quanta in Everyday Life.
