Zoom into a mini universe of teeny tiny things

What would everything look like if you shrank to the size of an ant? Miniverse takes you on a mind-boggling journey into the world of the teeny tiny. Discover how zips, paper, ballpoint pens, and velcro work by seeing them enlarged hundreds of times. Watch dust mites clambering through the jungle of fibres in a carpet and eyelash mites burrowing into the roots of human hairs. See how toxic venom squirts from the stings of hornets and nettles.

Miniverse reveals a hidden realm of unexpected beauty and complexity, from the intricate geometry of pollen grains to the mosaic of skin flakes that covers the human body.

Prepare to be wowed by the miniverse - a world that's all around you but that you've never seen before.
