Born for
escape velocity
Born in 1978 near the historic V1 rocket test site in Peenemünde, Germany. In 1984, his family escaped East Germany — trading one kind of confinement for infinite possibility.
Raised in Vienna by an electrical engineer father and radio operator mother, young Lennart consumed every science book his library held, attending university lectures on orbital mechanics before he was a teenager. That hunger never stopped.
Today: CTO of Byte Federal, creator of Marscoin®, author of 30+ books, fluent in six languages (including Latin, Sanskrit, and Pali), and one of the final candidates selected from 200,000+ applicants for the MarsOne mission.
Some people dream of escape. Others engineer it.

Cybersecurity in the Autonomous AI Age
88% of enterprises experienced AI agent security incidents in the past twelve months — yet only 6% have deployed advanced defenses. Based on documented attack patterns from 2025–2026, this is the definitive tactical guide for zero trust agent architectures, AI firewalls, and the 90-day implementation plan CISOs need before the inevitable breach.
