PA_510 [30 points]
One of the most iconic and high placed space invaders in Paris. The main question remains "How did he get up there?". And that also goes for the brave re-activator(s) of this PA_510 (I always thought this was PA_516 by the way). But this one is back again. A duo space invader with a view over the Place de la Bastille. Hopefully for a long time.

Second Best "52 Weeks Project"
Since I have been joining the 52 Weeks Project on Flickr it has happened several times that I had to chose between two or more self portraits that week. A difficult choice. The solution is to create a set of all good alternatives. Life is full of choices and sometimes a week has too much opportunities. This is one of those alternatives, the second best. And sometimes just as good.
Just a selfie in Clermont-Ferrand...
Location: Centre du Clermont-Ferrand, La Jetée. "Sauve Qui Peut Le Court Metrage", the "Studio cinématographique", the center of the short film festival.
Coordinates: 45°46'38" N 3°5'21" E
Reason: Not a specific reason at all. This second best "52-Weeks" selfportrait is made during my 3-day road trip to the city of Clermont-Ferrand to visit, capture and flash (by the online game FlashInvaders) all space invaders of Clermont-Ferrand.
Official "52" of this week: 15/52 Pelloche Ciné
Weather: Almost sunny, 14° C
Self-portrait technics: Joby portable gorillapod mounted on a street pole, selftimer on 10 seconds.

PA_1241 [30 point]
Dragon ball space invader in the 5ème arrondissement of Paris. Not far from the Notre-Dame de Paris! It was a pleasure to meet Archi & Philou (André) here in front of PA_1241, like me a fanatic space invader hunter and photograher. Nice to meet you André.

A hot day in Paris, "Plan canicule activé", I went for a walk for a meet and greet of two re-activated space invaders near Monceau and Courcelles...
Location: Place de la République de l' Équateur, Boulevard and Rue de Courvelles, Paris 8ème.
Coördinates: 48°87'91"N 2°30'35"E
Reason: I was in this part of Paris to capture and flash ("FlashInvaders") PA_387 and PA_268 and while waiting for the space invader in full sunlight (see at the corner left of my face) I took the opportunity for my selfportrait.
Boulevard de Courcelles: Boulevard de Courcelles is a 1160 meters long boulevard in the 8ème and 17ème arrondissement in Paris. This boulevard starts at avenue de Villiers and place Prosper-Goubaux and ends at place des Ternes.
There are 4 métro stations along this boulevard; Villiers (2, 3), Monceau (2), Courcelles (2), Ternes (2).
The boulevard owes its name to the nearby rue de Courcelles, which itself derives from the fact that it was the road that led directly to the hamlet of Courcelles.
More information: Wikipedia - Boulevard de Courcelles Paris
52-Weeks Revisit: I took a selfie a bit further down the Boulevard de Courcelles 5 years ago in 2015:

After a silence of more than 9 months, Invader is again active in the Paris area. After the invasion wave in Potesi (Bolivia) with 53 space invaders (total 2030 points) including the 4000th at 4000 meters altitude and as the 80th city it remained silent in Paris. Until the end of March.when this PA_1468 was installed.
For me PA_1468 was the 1216th space invader fount in Paris (of 1468). And this PA_1468 was number 4053 in the world and my flash was flash numer 13,187,220 and there were 210,969 players on this morning of 02/04/2022.

The show of four new space invaders (PA_1556 thru PA_1559) on February 19, 2026 started here in Montmartre with this PA_1556.
A striking detail is that these four (PA_1556 through PA_1559) use a new type of mosaic tile with a slightly curved front. I'm posting these four in the order I visited and flashed them. I came to Paris on the beautiful sunny day of February 25th to photograph these four in good lighting conditions.

THE INVASION OF CLERMONT-FERRAND
The first (two?) invasion wave(s) of the center of Clermont-Ferrand occured in the year 2000 and consisted 8 space invaders, 4 of them are still there (including 1 re-activation) and flashable.
In January 2016 Clermont-Ferrand was invaded again, the 3rd invasion wave took place:
"At the occasion of the screening of the very last version of the movie Art4Sspace at the Interntional Short Film Festival of Clermont-Ferrand, I have added 31 new creations to the city of the center of France. Among various themes, they refer to movies and cinema but also to what Clermont Ferrand is famous for : its gothic cathedrale, its volcanos, its Michelin factories and its Serge Gainsbourg street" (Invader)

A space invader in the suburb Puteaux West of Paris near La Défense. Ten years ago I was here as well to spot this $pace invader PA_1113 but I was too late. It was gone.

A space invader in a Mediterranean atmosphere in the tiny sea harbour of Vallon des Auffes. A harbor only used for pleasure boats. It's hard to get close to this sea reflecting space invader but it is easy flashable for FlashInvaders.
Till August 2020 I found and flashed all 13 space invaders of wave 1 (MARS_01 - MARS_11 - 2004 and wave 2 (MARS_12 and MARS_13). But during wave 3 in August 2020 the number of space invaders went up to 97. In total 84 space invaders on my list again.

PA_312 [10 points]
As far as I remember and hunt on space invaders in Paris and beyond (the year 2005) I have seen only seen this space invader for more than 35 percent destroyed. Not flashable on the online game smartphone application FlashInvaders untill June 2015 when of the space invader fans in Paris restored PA_312 and made it 'flashable' again. A perfect job with exactly the same tiles (color, size, material). Two reasons for this revisit: to see this one in full glory and in order to win 10 points in the FlashInvaders game.

The first space invader of the third wave of Invader in Marseille I encountered almost one year after invasion. Till August 2020 I found and flashed all 13 space invaders of wave 1 (MARS_01 - MARS_11 - 2004 and wave 2 (MARS_12 and MARS_13). But during wave 3 in August 2020 the number of space invaders went up to 97. In total 84 space invaders on my list again. This MARS_75 was the first, on the station where I arrived by Thalys from Amsterdam. There was overcast when I took this photo, doesn't happen that much in Summer in Marseille.

In total 4 new flashable space invaders in Rotterdam since July 28th. Thanks to the re-activation team two totally new (re-activated) space invaders for me and two flashable ones.
This one is located in between the neighbourhoods Oude Westen and Middelland in Rotterdam West.
I went there for the first time within 2 days after re-activation but came back for a better photo with more sunlight. The express road S100 is diving under this one.

THE INVASION OF ROTTERDAM
In the year 2001 the city of Rotterdam has been invaded by Invader. It was the 8th city in the world being invaded. In 4 days Invader put 26 space invaders (1 hidden bonus) on the walls of Rotterdam. Sometimes hidden sometimes on very visible locations. As we speak (*September2019) about 21 of 26 space invaders are there. Fifteen of them due to the work of the re-activations. Seven of them are still the original space invaders of 2001 put up by Invader.

This yellow ground invader has recently been re-activated again by one the many re-activators. This type of space invader has to endure a lot of wear and tear from all the public that walks over it every day. Unlike my first visit in 2020, all the tiles are still in place.

One of the special Olympic space invader pieces Invader put up in Paris during the Olympics of 2024. This one is very visibly located along the Seine right below Hôtel de Ville which is an official location during the Olympiad. Unfortunately this one did not stay very long. But a lot of people have enjoyed this one.
