”6.5 Billion's Survival - Living, with Emerging Sciences" Exhibition

National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation
Finished
Hot food and challenging jobs enhance our busy everyday lives. Yet the expansion of such a fulfilling lifestyle creates various problems such as the depletion of resources, an energy crisis, and global warming. Now, with the world's population at over 6.5 billion and growing, can future generations survive?

Miraikan presents an experience-based "survival training program" exploring the frontiers of science as a human survival tool and will consider the 5 themes of energy, food, living environment, tools, and communication. In addition, topics such as nuclear fusion, genetically modified food, industrial plant factory/agriculture innovations, new information technology infrastructures, nanotechnology and space science will also be included along with the latest data, images, and actual items. Rounding out this special exhibition will be our interpreters and volunteers armed with expert knowledge to provide a learning environment encouraging dialogue and understandable explanations.

View your future environment today through the eyes of cutting edge-science, examine science's influence and gain a new perspective on the inherent problems and potential solutions you will face in "modern life."
