Chemistry
The famous nuclear fission table in the chemistry exhibition: A simple wooden table shows the original equipment with which the fission of uranium atoms was first demonstrated in the winter of 1938. When Otto Hahn, Lise Meitner and Fritz Straßmann conducted experiments with uranium salts at that time, they expected to create heavier atoms. Instead, they found a much lighter element. The uranium nuclei were split, at that time an unthinkable reaction of the atomic nucleus.
