Klaus Thomaier, Director School Biology Center:
The exhibition “Walk through Time…” is about an unimaginably long period of time. It is therefore fitting that we had the longest-serving mayor of Hanover, Herbert Schmalstieg, here to open the exhibition. His 34 years of service are modest compared to the evolutionary history of the Earth. According to my calculations, they would amount to a whole 0.01 millimeters on the scale of the exhibition. Our mayor Schmalstieg took it with humor: “I think this is the longest exhibition that there has ever been here.”
