New 'The search for life'

‘The search for life’ interactive exhibition at NEMO

How likely is it that an extraterrestrial will actually phone home? Will you ever see a stone running away? And what do you have in common with a jellyfish and a plant? Come and visit the new ‘The search for life’ exhibition at NEMO and discover the secrets of life.



What is the difference between life and a lifeless object, how did life begin billions of years ago and is there really a chance of extraterrestrial life? After visiting the ‘The search for life’ exhibition, you will be able to tell your friends, parents and even your teacher all the answers. And the best thing about NEMO is that you have to try everything out for yourself!

Creating life?!
The famous Miller-Urey experiment lies at the heart of the exhibition. NEMO and Eindhoven Technical University (TU/e) are now repeating that experiment at NEMO.

Partners
The exhibition brings together biology, chemistry, physics and astronomy. The main partner for the exhibition is the European Space Organisation (ESA). Other partners include the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO), the Netherlands Institute for Space Research (SRON) and Eindhoven Technical University. Thanks to this close collaboration with partners, the exhibition can cover the most recent developments, perspectives and results relating to the search for life.
