A single visit usually lasts about one hour, and you can watch the loop of the exhibition multiple times if you like.

Your ticket has a specific time slot for entry, but you can typically enter up to 30 mins after the start of your reserved time. If you arrive later than that, you might not be allowed in. The exhibitions are continuous loops, so you won't miss anything permanently, but arriving on time ensures you can see the full cycle from the beginning.
