L’Observatoire de l’Espace

The Space adventure was one of the vectors of major 20th-century cultural transformations and the Space dream, a powerful driver for fuelling Man’s desire for change. Since its foundation in 2000, the CNES (Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales, the French space agency) cultural laboratory Observatoire de l’Espace is where new relations between Space and Culture are developed.
