“Thank God it’s Friday’s test!” Every Friday there is a new quiz on IT, technology, entertainment or nerd topics:

For us, that’s reason enough to take you into space before a well-deserved weekend of solving the puzzle of asteroids, comets and their space probes in our quiz on Friday. In general, it is worth watching our #heiseshow as well as the reports on the last missions to prepare: This time too, Volker Zota and Malte Kirchner were mystified Three quiz questions in advance, choose the best answer and joke with the audience.
