Fascinating pictures of alien worlds and 'the largest moon on Earth'
The 'Out of this World' exhibition shows our Solar System as a huge process of growth and decay and takes visitors on a journey into the cosmos. The highlight is the 25-metre diameter 'largest moon on Earth', which can be seen suspended under the Gasometer's 100-metre high roof. Spectacular reproductions of our planetary system, fascinating images of alien worlds, precious historical instruments and modern space research technology show the audience the drama of the birth and the development of the Solar System. The displays connect scientific, cultural and historical points of view.
