The origin of the Earth

adult performance for ages 12 and up During this impressive fulldome show, we relive the origin of the solar system. We start about 5 billion years ago with the shockwave of a supernova that triggered the birth of the sun, our star in the Milky Way. We follow the spectacular formation of planets around the sun, with countless collisions and impacts that eventually led to the creation of the Earth and our natural companion, the moon. Then something remarkable happens. Life emerges on the third planet around the sun. We investigate the ingenious processes that the first life forms and we ourselves still use today. Then the question remains: is the Earth a unique place in the universe, an oasis of life in an inhospitable cosmos? Or is our planet just one of many with habitable conditions? A visit lasts about 1.5 hours and consists of the planetarium show mentioned above, followed by a projection of the starry sky, a visit to the telescopes in the observation tower, and the Cozmix exhibition space.
