The exhibition “Mathematics of Planet Earth” is part of the Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften (Science Night) at the Free University of Berlin - 13. June 2015

Volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, melting glaciers: Can they be calculated? How big is the contribution of mathematical sciences to the task of mastering these current ecological problems and catastrophes that massively challenge our world? The exhibition “Mathematics of Planet Earth” gives insights into these questions.

The exhibition, which was also shown in the Deutsches Technikmuseum in Berlin, is part of the Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften at the Free University of Berlin. It has been developed jointly with IMAGINARY and the Deutsches Technikmuseum Berlin. Infos about the Science Night can be found here; for detailed info about the project please click here.
