It was here in Pleumeur-Bodou, in the heart of the Pink Granite Coast, that France erected a gigantic horn antenna weighing 340 tons, housed inside the “Radôme”, an enormous 50m-high sphere.
On 11 July 1962, the antenna received the very first televised images to be beamed live from the United States. This was a world first which marked the birth of worldwide satellite broadcasting and paved the way for space telecommunications.
Relive the birth of space telecommunications as if you were there, in the very heart of the Radôme. Thrills and excitement guaranteed, in a venue which is truly unique and steeped in history!
