It's okay! Climb on him! Don't ignore the awesome quotes that surround him, though. Also, the specks on the ground are a model of the heavens. Take a look :)

Don't overlook the celestial chart embedded in the ground at the statue 's feet.

stand in the middle of the circle directly in front of Einstein and speak to one of the open sides. there is an acoustic effect that echoes your voice as if you were speaking into a microphone.

Casi pasa desapercibido entre tanto monumento , pero es muy original. Una estatua gigante de Einstein sentando sobre un mapa del Universo .

No dejen que los niños se suban. Muestren un poco de respeto.
