As seen from space, the view of Earth - a marble ball against the backdrop of infinity - provides a unique and vital perspective. We see no borders, no conflicts, but an incredible ecosystem that is inherently dynamic and fiercely independent, and the only place - to this day - where we find life. This perspective of our blue planet reminds us that we all share the same spacecraft and that our futures are undoubtedly linked. Julie Payette, astronaut and veteran of two space missions, will illustrate this perspective of the planet with the help of stunning photos that she invites you to come and see for yourself. 

We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you to this most interesting luncheon presentation.
