I was at the Paris Air Show 2025!

Throwback to the exceptional International Paris Air Show last week!

I had the great pleasure of participating in this fantastic event as part of the young research team of Centre National d’Études Spatiales. It was a unique opportunity to see the breathtaking demo of the F-35 by Lockheed Martin, from the perfect location!

I witnessed how strong the aerospace industry is moving forward, with innovative and ambitious projects shaping the future of aviation and space. I had the opportunity to exchange with many companies leading that change.

I was able to see:
– New aeroplanes’ hybrid systems proposed by Ascendance, bringing us closer to carbon-free aeroplanes.
Archer flying taxis. I didn’t expect short-distance aircraft to be this close to reality!
– A large variety of drones for any mission by Delair.
– The announcement of the thrilling hashtag#Vortex project by Dassault Aviation: a REUSABLE space plane is on the way!
– The versatility offered by HEMERIA, from the sea, to space, and even stratospheric balloons!

And, of course, all the French space startups are set to make a big impact in the coming years.
HyPrSpace and their new rocket (Go Baguette!).
Latitude, which will offer a faster way to space.
U-Space, building the next generation of small satellites.
Greenerwave uses electromagnetic waves to communicate through satellites.
– And all the work done by the GIFAS – Groupement des Industries Françaises Aéronautiques et Spatiales to create significant synergies in the industry.

As a researcher in embedded AI, passionate about making aerospace systems smarter, I found these incredible innovations truly inspiring: they sparked new ideas for the future!

I’m already looking forward to the next edition!
