Dynamic Earth

In this exhibition, we showcase the processes that make our Earth so unique and that all life depends on.

Life sets Earth apart from all the other planets we know of. Why is Earth so different? Why does life thrive here? There are many unique factors required for life to be possible, and Earth possesses all of these.

The Earth is often called the Blue Planet and it is truly distinct from the other planets of the Solar System. It is covered by oceans and green forests and has seasonal variations and air that can be breathed. And it is teeming with life.

On the surface, its distinctiveness is obvious. However, also the Earth's interior and magnetic fields are different from the other planets. Without these physical characteristics, life could not have evolved the way it did.

In this exhibition visitors will get to know the processes that make our planet unique and that all life depend upon.
