We invite you to meet inspiring personalities in unexpected places. Each encounter is unique. It’s a reminder of how the power of a dream can change a destiny.
It’s a rare moment of sharing, when the stage symbolically transforms into a backstage area, allowing you to have a privileged exchange with the guest personalities and all the participants.
The subjects are varied. What they have in common is their openness to the world.
It’s also an opportunity for us to meet you and thank you for your support and commitment.
“I wanted to be a pilot or an astronomer – I became both. Then I became an astronaut, but when I was a kid we hadn’t been in space yet and astronauts didn’t exist”.
On December 18, 2024, Claude Nicollier, Astrophysicist, ESA Astronaut, EPFL Honorary Professor, inaugurated “Les Rencontres ASED” at the Musée d’Ethographie in Geneva. He shared with us his memories, his childhood dreams, his extraordinary career and the photos he took during his four space missions. With his characteristic humility and wisdom, he shared with us the infectious wonder he feels for our planet.
That evening, we all had our heads in the stars ✨
