Survivors of the X-TREME… to be seen with your children!

The interactive exhibition for all ages called the “Survivors of the X-TREME” will be held at the Museum of Natural Sciences of Brussels – Belgium until August 30th 2009.

The X-TREME exhibition will take you to the most extreme spots on our planet. In places where people have to use all sorts of cunning tricks to survive, even for a short time, we can find animals and plants that have made survival into a veritable art. These are super specialists that have acclimatized to heat, cold, drought, permanent darkness or lack of oxygen.

In X-TREME you will find out who the survival champions are and how they have adapted to these extreme environments. Discover what it means to live in these areas: get first-hand experience of how cold the ice wall is, feel the wind-chill effect on your own skin, find your way through dark spaces in our bat cave and climb Mount Everest like a true mountaineer. Will you survive this exhibition?

X-TREME is an environment of interactivity and experience; an exhibition for all ages!
