The University of Pisa’s Natural History Museum in Calci presents “Salto nel buio: creature degli abissi”, curated by Naturaliter. The official programme schedules its inauguration for 2 October; the municipal tourism calendar lists the exhibition until 30 June 2027. We describe the announced exhibition without assigning it an attendance result. [1][3]
Models and settings take visitors from surface waters to ocean trenches. Subjects include lanternfish and giant squid: the trail explains how organisms cope with darkness, cold and high pressure. It is not an aquarium of living animals. [2]
The bright side
The exhibition makes the forms and adaptations of organisms from hard-to-reach habitats available to observe. [2]
One idea, in simple words
How different is the sea when we travel far below its surface? An exhibition at the University of Pisa’s Natural History Museum in Calci explores that question. Its title is “Salto nel buio: creature degli abissi”. The programme schedules the inauguration for 2 October, and the municipal calendar lists the exhibition until 30 June 2027. These are announced dates, not a report of how many people have visited. [1][3]
The exhibition uses models and settings; it does not display these animals alive in an aquarium. The trail leads from surface waters into deeper zones. Visitors encounter representations of lanternfish, giant squid and other organisms. The central idea is to understand how life can cope with dark, cold places under strong water pressure. [2]
