Where did the Earth come from? How were the Sun, the planets and living beings formed? Where does the extraordinary wealth of stars that populate our Universe come from?
These are just some of the questions that the 900 m² permanent exhibition will answer on a fun and interactive journey from the origins of the Universe to the appearance of life on our planet.
The Big Bang and its theories, the stars and galaxies, the solar system and the conquest of space will no longer hold any secrets for you, thanks to a number of interactive digital displays: The star factory, the exploratorium, on the way to the planets, the cosmology forum...
Scientific mediators are on hand throughout the exhibition to answer your questions.
