Understanding the origin of life, discovering a Diplodocus for the first time, understanding the sexuality of plants, seeing the ravages of human activities on our planet, looking for the remains of vanished kingdoms, dreaming of conquering the universe ... So many themes which inspired the collective to retrace the formidable human adventure that is science.

Meet famous people (Voltaire, Buffon, Paul Rivet, etc.) and travel through the highlights of the Museum's history: the resistance of the Musée de l'Homme during the Second World War, the first arrival in France of a giraffe in 1827 at the Menagerie, the introduction of the blob at the Paris Zoological Park in 2019...

The exhibition took place at the Jardin des Plantes in Paris, from May to October 2021.
