Join the universe of sky explorers during the fortnight Meribel in the sky
Welcome in an astronomical scenery from 17th to 30th July 2021
When you take the time to gazing at the stars, we are overwhelmed by a feeling… Being so small in this wide universe where every night, the sky is sparkling.
At that time, our problems seem to fade away one by one and, millions of questions appear in our heads: How many stars are there in the sky ? How many planets ? What is weightlessness ? How is it to go in the moon ? What’s exactly a constellation ?
