About

Pushing open the door, you enter a space filled with the thudding sound of a blue-gray iron door. The helmets and uniforms hung here and there are still, yet a faint sense of movement lingers in the gaps between them. The long corridor running through the interior of the ship carries a weight, as though it continues the breathing of the past. The warning sound of a radiation instrument echoing from the end of the corridor makes this place, where time has stopped, all the more mysterious. Amid a stillness that feels like stepping into history itself, visitors slowly make their way toward the traces of an empire that has passed through a generation.
