⁣⁢Thomas Pesquet is the tenth French astronaut and the first among them to command the International Space Station (ISS). During his two missions in space, Proxima in 2016-2017 and Alpha in 2021, he shared his scientific adventure, his daily life on the Station, and his photos of our planet, notably via social media. He thus
inspired millions of people. His journeys also led to a realization; an opportunity to take a fresh look at Earth, its beauty, and its fragility.⁤⁣

The Monnaie de Paris partners with Thomas Pesquet to call for taking care of our planet. This collection invites you to join the astronaut in weightlessness. It pays tribute to the space adventure that always looks toward new horizons, but above all to our Earth, magnificent yet fragile.
