Science Tunnel
A Journey Through Scientific Discovery

Partners

Most of the unique pictures, videos, and exhibited objects come from the 78 Max Planck Institutes. In addition, research partners like CERN, the world’s largest laboratory for particle physics, the European Space Agency ESA, the European Southern Observatory ESO and the Fraunhofer Society have loaned the Science Tunnel valuable exhibits. These all provide a glimpse behind the scenes of leading-edge science. Thanks to interactive video stations in each area, research highlights can be taken in through all the senses.

All the exhibits are presented for the first time outside Europe, and a few are even giving their public debut.
