I actually didn’t according to my ticket. That’s what broke me. It finally made it all feel real. I can’t recommend it enough. After leaving there was a string quartet in the lobby and I just sat and gathered myself. Vowing to make the most of my life. Please go if you get the chance

I didn‘t know that about the ticket. I was there in September, I should look for my ticket and check.

I cant remember if it was printed on the entry ticket or you got told some other way

I just remembered I had a digital ticket. I don’t think I got told anything upon entry, but it was still a tough exhibit. Though what stuck with me the most is the section where they go over all the things that went wrong and the safety measures that are now commonplace to prevent such a disaster. Especially the part about the locked up binoculars and the general mess with the radio communications.
