“Exploring the infinite…”, this extraordinary journey to the heart of excess.
- Close to the Les Halles district, the Musée des Arts et Métiers tells us the history of the great technological and industrial advances
- “Exploring the infinite…” is an exploration of the distant, the ancient, the immense and the minute
- Adventurers of extreme cold, we dive 20 thousand leagues under the sea with the Nautilus, this small submarine that can go 6000 meters underwater
- We discover the world through the small end of the telescope, by observing what we cannot see with the naked eye with scientific instruments
- This immersive exhibition is full of explanations while leaving the door open to the marvellous
- Thanks to projections, educational tools, games and interactive workshops, the visitor slips into the shoes of an explorer. Like walking on the Moon or Mars and visiting space with Galileo Galilei
- But how far can we go in the search for knowledge? Where can we place the cursor of discovery without jeopardizing the balance of our beautiful planet?
- “Exploring the infinite…” is an extraordinary journey into the heart of excess.
- An ideal outing during the February and Easter holidays with a programme of fun activities that completes the visit
