Destination Cosmos Hero Render Culturespaces, with participation from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and in partnership with CNES, announced today that Hall des Lumi?res will offer a new, limited-time exhibit: Destination Cosmos: The Immersive Space Experience. Opening April 7 and running through June 4, 2023, the digital exhibition will launch guests on a gripping voyage across the universe. Destination Cosmos: The Immersive Space Experience transports the public to a maze of stars, planets, nebulae, and supernovae. Composed of 13 sequences and a prologue, the unique journey of discovery begins at Cape Canaveral and ends in the universe's outer reaches. After departing from Earth, visitors are invited to travel over Martian canyons alongside rovers (space exploration vehicles), dive into the heart of Jupiter, glide across the rings of Saturn, and explore beyond the frontiers of our solar system to experience the immensity of our universe. Thanks to stunning images from NASA that bring this exhibition to life, Destination Cosmos will allow visitors to embark on a unique voyage into space and time through visuals and a curated soundtrack. Destination Cosmos begins in darkness and fills the hall with a starry sky where constellations emerge to create The Ancient Human Dream of Space Exploration, setting the stage for the exhibition. Following a succession of ancient illustrations, the exhibition then proceeds into The Space Race: Destination Moon, featuring Yuri Gagarin?s first manned space flights, from the spacecraft production to the pop culture phenomenon, and the Apollo missions conducted by the Americans in the 1960s, allowing the visitors to experience Neil Armstrong?s first footstep on the surface of the Moon. It brings to life Armstrong?s famous reaction, ?one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.?
