The Conquest of Space in Images



The space age began with the launch of Sputnik. Since then, man has walked on the Moon, robots have stirred the soil on Mars, and probes have scanned the farthest reaches of the Universe. Russia, America, Europe, and Canada embarked on an amazing space adventure. The milestone events on this journey are eloquently presented in stunning photographs in this exhibit, adapted from an original created by France’s space agency, the Centre national d’études spatiales.

Please note: The Conquest of Space in Images will not be available beyond May 2012.
