In view of the seventh edition that will hold in june in Florence, the Festival del Viaggio (Festival of travel) launches a preview dedicated to the travel in space, where the spaceman of the European Space Agency, Roberto Vittori, will talk about his travel in space.
Wednesday 21th march, at 10 am, in the Sala Luca Giordano of Palazzo Medici Riccardi, the spaceman Roberto Vittori will recount, for the first time, his experience “Nello spazio profondo” (in the deep space).
During the appointment will be project the images of space shuttles, the images of daily life in absence of gravity and the images of the Earth seen from space.
The aim of the Festival is to analyze the theme of travel from many point of views, an opportunity to talk about own experiences, and about the different reasons and philosophies that brought a man to travel and the different practices of travel.
In anticipation of the edition 2012, during which there will be celebrations of three anniversaries: the fifth centenary of Amerigo Vespucci, the centenary of Fosco Maraini and the seventieth birthday of Jimi Endrix, all participants at the preview will be able to let go in imagination on the words of Roberto Vittori.
If you are not of Florence, take the opportunity to spend the first days of spring in the city and book a room in one of the hotels of the Ars Hotels chain.
