French Sky and Space

Created by Jimmy, Ben, Kelsey, Josh, Lauren, Natasha, Robin, and Cathy

It's a bird! It's a plane! It's the French Sky and Space website!

Here you'll know everything there is about the sky and space just as if you were Superman or Superwoman. In fact, if they were creating a Superman show in a place that spoke French, you could audition for the part thanks to us! If you were flying through outerspace you would see things like a trou noir, comète, éclipse, and the lune. OK, now it's time to go up, up, and away with our website. Have a good time! Hope to see you around here again!

Lots of snow on a school day means NO school for us! N for no, N for neige. We love neige!

Lots of rain means you might get a leak and need a PAIL! P for pail, P for pluie. Pluie is good sometimes, but not in a case like that when you need pail.

Extra terrestrials live in outer space where there are lots of stars. ET stands for extra terrestrial and those are the same two letters that begin the word étoiles (stars) where the ET live.

Satellite is the same word in French and English. There are other words like that on this site. Do you see anymore?

Avion reminds you of aviation which is flying an airplane. Avion means airplane in French. What a coincidence!

We love eclairs, but not the type on this website. We like the chocolate ones that you eat as dessert, not the ones that come out from the sky and can shock you. They have nothing to do with each other, so don't get them mixed up, or you could be eating the wrong thing! Éclairs here means lightning!

If you listen to New AGE music, you become relaxed. The same effect happens when you sit on the ground and watch nuages (clouds) go by. If you do both things then you'll feel really relaxed!
