This exhibition, comprising some fifty shots taken from the ground and from space, was installed on the allées Charles de Gaulle in Revel (Occitanie, France) from June to October 2024. It has invited local residents and tourists alike to discover our Universe, the objects that fill it (planets, moons, stars, black holes, quasars, galaxies, etc.), and the tools of space exploration (rockets, orbital stations, interplanetary probes, rovers).
This exhibition, featuring some fifty images taken from the ground and from space, has invited local residents and tourists alike to discover our Universe, the objects that fill it (planets, moons, stars, black holes, quasars, galaxies, etc.), and the tools of space exploration (rockets, orbital stations, interplanetary probes, rovers). To this end, these fifty images have been distributed along the spiral arms of a fictitious galaxy, each dedicated to a given theme: the Sky from Earth, the star cycle, planetary exploration, the Universe on a grand scale, the tools of space exploration.
On June 13, July 17 and August 14, 2024, interested visitors were invited to take a walk through the spiral arms of this galaxy - in other words, a guided tour of this exhibition entitled « Journey into the Universe », conceived and created in partnership with the Mairie de Revel and on display until the end of October on the allées Charles de Gaulle in Revel. Audio podcasts have also been created in collaboration with Revel City Council's communications department. Available on the YouTube channel of the City of Revel, they accompanied any solo promenade.
On September 23 and 30, 2024, a presentation of our Universe and the objects that fill it was offered to two 6th grade classes from College La Providence in Revel, on the exhibition site. A great moment of exchange and questioning!
Below you will find a virtual tour of the exhibition.
