L’exposition "Oups. Au cœur de l'erreur." au Pavillon des sciences

The exhibition is an invitation into the world of cock-ups, flops, blunders and other big blunders, from tarte Tatin to the Fukushima disaster... to accept that mistakes are human...

In our society, failure is frowned upon. "You have to succeed!
Yet many successes are based on a succession of previously failed experiments or experiments that, sometimes, led to a surprising, unexpected result.

All fields, including science, operate on this principle. You have to make mistakes to succeed. The idea of the exhibition is to show that scientists simply don't look at failure the way we do. Failure is a given in itself.

For children aged 10 and over.
