Nous avons envoyé notre appel à minimiser l'impact environnemental des projets spatiaux scientifiques au Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales (#CNES) afin de nourrir son exercise de prospective scientifique de 2024.

Déjà 255 scientifiques ont signé cet appel ; doucement mais sûrement, le monde de la recherche est en train de changer.

How satellite technology is being used in France to fight forest fires.

It's only a "carneaux d’évacuation des gaz de combustion et des déflecteurs de jets” when it comes from the Guyane region of France, if it comes from Texas, it's a destroyed Launch Pad. Loving this smug self-righteousness from the #CNES🇫🇷
