Joints
Structure and Function
To begin with, we distinguish between so-called “real“ and “fake” joints. Unlike “real” joints, which are separated from each other by a joint space, “fake“ joints form an immovable connection between bones and are therefore called synarthroses. Synarthroses have limited mobility. Their purpose is to hold the bones firmly together thus stabilising our skeletons. Synarthrosis joints can be bony, fibrous or cartilaginous. Depending on the type of connecting material, they are referred to as synostoses, synchondroses or syndesmoses. Among the syndesmotic joints, where two bones are connected by elastic or tout connective tissue, are the ligaments supporting the vertebral column. The rib cartilage, connecting ribs and sternum, as well as the intervertebral discs belong to the cartilaginous joints. With the synostotic joints, the connection of the individual bones consists of bone mass. Among them are cranial bones after ossification of the sutures as well as the sacrum with the superior articular processes, the sacral lamina, the lateral part and the sacral apex.

Inclusion
Madita is eleven and blind. She does not want to go to a special school but to a regular grammar school. She says she feels "normal" there. Jonathan is eight and has a walking disability. He likes going to the school where he lives. Here, his best friend sits next to him. Max Dimpflmeier, a teacher who is severely deaf, explains that school life is not easy. Quote Max Dimpflmeier: "You don't want to attract attention, you want to avoid saying that it is necessary for you that 70 people adjust to your situation." People on their way to inclusion.
Air Traffic
Being able to fly has been a dream of humanity from time immemorial. But it does not even date back a century that people actually started being able to travel through the air. Since the 1960s, the number of flight passengers has been constantly increasing. Thus, the airspace is no longer dominated by birds but by man-made flying objects.
Youth Movement
Dancing until your feet hurt: Here, at the meeting on the Hoher Meissner near Kassel, 3,500 participants from Boy Scout associations, youth and Wandervogel groups from all over the German-speaking region have gathered. They want to celebrate, simply get to know each other and commemorate a historic anniversary.
