Plants & Planets

Time and space

In this new presentation at the Old Observatory you can wonder at what science, art and nature tell us about the origin of life. What is the source of life? Where does organic growth come from? And what does that mean for us? Plants & Planets shows that scientists have made great leaps forward in the past century. You are immersed in an all-encompassing experience: a journey through time and space. At the end you may have even more questions than you do now. Because how life can actually emerge, that is still one of humanity's greatest mysteries.
