This program aims to introduce the basics of astronomy through observations of the sky with the naked eye or with instruments, both during the day and in the evening. Various astronomical objects, from the solar system to deep space, will be discussed in terms of their physical characteristics, leading to an understanding of the structure and history of the universe.

Eclipses of the moon and sun, and daily tides are phenomena that result from the interdependent movements of the Sun, Earth, and Moon. This activity offers participants a better understanding of the interactions between the Earth and its satellite. Careful observation, model development, and experimental application are the key steps in scientific reasoning.

Hosted at the Toulouse Space Center, trainees will develop their knowledge of climate change and the space sector in all their diversity and complementarity. This knowledge will be put into practice using real-life cases from the Space Climate Observatory database.
Using the tools provided, trainees will be able to participate in the development of concrete projects related to their professional context.

Hosted by CNES, trainees will attend french presentations by engineers (CNES, etc.), engage in discussions with scientists, participate in workshops based on issues related to the theme, and take part in practical observations and case studies, data analysis, management, and exploitation, as well as discussions and debates with scientists.

Cooking involves a series of physical, chemical, and biological transformations of matter and provides opportunities for interdisciplinary projects. So what scientific approach do researchers responsible for gastronomy on the ISS take to preserve local flavors on the Space Station? We will find out when we meet Thomas Pesquet's team.

Argonimaux is a project proposed by CNES to study marine biodiversity by tracking the movements of animals equipped with Argos tags and highlighting the impact of environmental and climatic variations on their journeys using satellite data. Since this project involves a large amount of data, the use of Python scripts seems to be a suitable tool for tracking these movements.

The ocean and climate are closely linked. The ocean covers 70% of the Earth's surface and helps regulate climate, particularly through the water cycle. The aim of the training course (french) is to provide an update on the links between climate and oceans and to encourage reflection on physical and numerical modeling.

This training course (french) will be an opportunity to learn about beliefs surrounding the sun, as well as discover two new scientific cultural sites in Aquitaine: the “solar system discovery walk” in Lot-et-Garonne and the brand new “path of time” on the Gradignan-Pessac-Talence science and technology campus.

As part of a partnership with MétéoFrance, this french training course aims to provide an understanding of the complex phenomenon of climate change. After reviewing key scientific concepts, the proposed investigative approaches, which can then be replicated in the classroom with students, aim to understand the processes at work and the issues at stake.

This training course (french) will provide an opportunity to learn about research through a meeting with an astronomer from OSUG, as well as discovering two major scientific cultural sites in Grenoble: the brand new Cosmocité, which has two exhibition areas, a planetarium and an immersive room, and the museum space at the Observatory of the Sciences of the Universe on campus.

This one-day training course (french) is intended for M2 MEEF students who completed the training course on the solar system the previous year. It provides an opportunity to discover the properties and tools that enable students to work on concepts and knowledge in astronomy. It will also be an opportunity to learn about current research on these objects in the Universe.
