The Deutsches Museum

The Deutsches Museum had a most of its top floors dedicated to the different areas of astronomy. But the one part of astronomy I found most interesting was the room dedicated to the Big Bang theory. There were physical exhibits to try make the ideas involved in the theory easier to understand. There was a soccer ball to show how big the universe was when it was much less than a second old. There were also two large boxes filled with white and black sand to show how much matter and antimatter was present in the beginning of the universe, and there was only a single grain of white sand to show how much matter is still left. The room also had screens that would show the background radiation in the universe that led to the development of the theory in the first place. The entire room was also organized in such a way that showed how the universe had changed throughout the many years since it's birth. I found this room very interesting and hope that more people had seen this unique exhibit.
