Um mergulho profundo no passado distante da Terra mostra como a vida lutou para se recuperar muito depois do pior evento de aquecimento global de todos os tempos.
Natural History Museum Vienna
The Natural History Museum Vienna is one of the largest non-university research centres in Austria. The museum’s departments are home to around 60 scientists carrying out fundamental research in a wide range of fields related to earth sciences, life sciences and human sciences.
The composition of the earth and the origins of the universe are current research topics, as are the development and proliferation of primitive plants and animals, biodiversity and genetics. The Museum also carries out research into the earliest manifestations and prehistory of man.
The scientific collections, which are amongst the largest and most valuable in the world, are a window onto the diversity of species and feature a wealth of minerals and meteorite and prehistoric remains. The museum houses approximately 30 million specimens and the number is growing, as research trips and digs yield still more discoveries.
