While the general public first noticed Jan Lukačevič thanks to his role of Marsonaut in the #jetovtobe project by Vodafone, other popularisers have been following him for a long time now. After all, he is hard to miss, and not only due to his remarkable height; it’s the ideas and opinions of this young scientist that draw you in. An excellent narrator who sees and shares the bigger picture and is able to explain complex scientific topics to regular people in a simple and fun way.

Young chemist Vojtěch Kundrát has already accomplished as much as some do in their entire lives. As a high-school student, he started working with top research groups at universities in Prague as well as Brno. He’s patented several inventions, contributed to the development of a sunscreen oil for albinos in Ghana, and dozens of people in Tanzania now have access to drinking water thanks to his invention. On top of all this, he decided to study art at the Faculty of Fine Arts at BUT.
