“We already have more than 50 participants for this first, proof that there is public interest in scientific issues, estimates Christophe Belloc, president of the association. We created the Dernière Science to bring together people who are passionate about scientific issues.” Its goal is to organize events throughout the year like this astronomy evening but is already working on developing a program of conferences on sports medicine, artificial intelligence, etc., always with the desire to speak to as many people as possible, to popularize science.
“Our mission is to demystify science and make it accessible to everyone, regardless of age or financial means. We organize a variety of events, giving the floor to experts. We are also aiming to create an astronomy festival from 2025, explains the president of the association. We are also aiming for a connection with the world of education by partnering with the European Space Agency to promote science in middle and high schools.”
This Saturday, September 7, don’t forget your hiking shoes and headlamp to walk safely under a starry sky…
