Our Ocean From Space is an itinerant exhibition bringing a Space-eye into the ocean and ocean challenges. Inaugurated at the Ocean Decade conference in April 2024, Our Ocean from Space comprises stunning Earth observation satellite images and modelled data illustrations accompanied by interviews with scientific experts, local decision-makers and coastal stakeholders to explore current efforts to protect our valuable marine ecosystems. Nine themes are covered including ecosystems, threats, shape, ice, ocean warming, motion, heritage, future and traffic.
The exhibition is curated by Fiorella Coliolo (ESA) and Benoit Delplanque (Timkat), coproduced by UNESCO and ESA with the support of key actors, including Mercator Ocean International and the Copernicus Marine Service, CNES, ASI and CMCC.
The exhibition will be presented throughout April in Nice, on the Promenade des Anglais, in partnership with the Centre Universitaire Méditerranéen. It will then take center stage in June during the Third United Nations Ocean Conference (UNOC) at Nice’s Palais des Expositions.
