Science Tunnel ll
A Journey Through Scientific Discovery
A fascinating expedition into the mysteries of our world – to groundbreaking discoveries and to the current issues and insights of modern science: The Science Tunnel ll presents the very latest advances in scientific research. Displayed in twelve separate modules are the achievements of scientists working at the cutting edge of science. Some 300 photographs and 150 short movies enable the visitor to step into the world of the researchers and view and experience their latest discoveries. As with its predecessor, the Science Tunnel l, the journey starts with the tiniest particle of matter and ends with a view of the entire universe. There are a total of some 50 exhibits in Science Tunnel ll, including interactive ones enabling visitors to conduct experiments on their own.
Exhibition Design
The complex form of Science Tunnel ll was developed by using parts of its predecessor, Science Tunnel l. The overall structure of the first Science Tunnel has been incorporated into the new one. Science Tunnel ll consists of 12 modules where the very latest scientific research achievements are shown. In addition there is an entry module and an optional model on the Max-Planck Society. Each of the 12 modules have two distinctive arches. Around these there is an appearance of a collar. These cloth-covered collars stabilise the modules and are used as a surface for projection of images. Concave-shaped surfaces for displaying graphics are also attached to the modular system. The graphics are illuminated from behind to give the maximum visual effect. The accompanying interactive displays and showcases strike a remarkable contrast against Science Tunnel ll's distinctive and original architecture.
