VOYAGE IN THE UNIVERSE 

The Adventure begun by Galileo 

In the "Sala Mazzoniana" of the Termini Station a fascinating "Voyage in the Universe" takes place, realized thanks to the effort of the Space Agencies all over the world. An excursion in the sky among planets, galaxies, comets and supernovae. A flight in time and space to discover the sidereal depths and the most exotic celestial phenomena: from Galileo's observations of the sky to the missions of the space probes. 

You will see the manuscripts and the telescopes used at the times of Galileo, the Galileo National Telescope, the Galileo probe, the Martian Rover that recently landed on Mars, and a lot more? You will discover the Universe using computers and videos. You will look at the Universe in a way you have never done before, you will be projected in the Cosmos and you will live the real "adventure begun by Galileo".
