PA_1320 [20 points]
In the year 2017 Invader made a whole series of space invaders with the theme "vegan". Often located in the 9th and 10th arrondissements of Paris. I had just simply forgotten this one. Fortunately PA_1320 was still "active".
Other 10 space invaders with vegetables and fruit are PA_1318 through PA_1329 (except PA_1323).
PA_1320 was worldwide number 3579.

Just flashed my 1503th space invader here...
Location: Place Rhin-et-Danube, Paris 19ème, France.
Coordinates: Click on the link to see the exact location where this photo was taken:
Reason: During my 908th découcher (overnight) in Paris my mission was to visit this space invader which I never flashed before. And that while this is already the third PA_984 after being removed from the wall twice.
PA_984: The original space invader was installed by Invader on 15/05/2011/ It was in 2011 the 2539th space invader of the world made by Invader. Deleted in 2014/2015. First re-activation took place in 2017 and this was deleted in 2021. This version number 3 of PA_984 and finally flashed by me.

FlashInvaders: This my 1503th space invader flashed since I joined this online game which already has more than 293 thousand players and over 18 million space invaders have been flashed. In total I scored 43,830 points and when this photo was taken I was ranked 790th of 293,000plus which is not that bad at all. This PA_984 was my 1250th space invader in Paris I flashed out of the 1485 space invaders in Paris (April 2023).
Place Rhin-et-Danube: Place Rhin-et-Danube is a square in the 19ème arrondissement of Paris in the quartier Amérique. Metro line 7bis has a station on this square; station Danube.

PA_259 [10 points]
Due to covid-19 I was forgotten to visit this re-activated space invader in the 16ème arrondissement. The re-activation is aronnd two years ago before I visited this one. According to Invader this is a CAMO space invader because it has the colors of a streetname sign. The traffic light beggar provided some animation for my photo luckily.

In the night of 23/03/2016 three new space invaders were installed in Paris, all in the 15ème arrondissement (PA_1196 thru PA_1198). This blue 'art deco' shaped space invader is one of them. One of the most succesdful space invader hunters on this planet (JOETHECRAB_1, rank #06, 1340 space invaders seen and flashed, 39430 points on 27/07/2016) was willing to strike a pose in front of this new invader less than one day after invasion.

The first space invader put up after the lockdown in France which ended on May 11, exactly the day Nina Simone appeared on the wall here.
This invader attracts a lot of attention, you don't see Nina Simone every day! The tour guide in the picture was explaining the phenomenon space invaders and is a player of FlashInvaders as well (like more than 137,000 as we speak, 31/07/2020).

Mosaic art at ESA’s ESRIN Earth observation centre near Rome, Italy, placed under a mockup of Europe's launcher for small satellites Vega. French artist Invader is installing his art at ESA establishments around Europe and even on the International Space Station.
ESA has been monitoring Earth with its environmental satellites since the 1970s, keeping a constant watch over our planet by analysing satellite data to protect our environment.
The first space invader mosaic art was found by ESA astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti during her mission on the International Space Station. She installed ‘Space2’ in Europe’s Columbus space laboratory. Since then, space-themed art has appeared at the European Astronaut Centre in Cologne, Germany, at our Redu Centre in Belgium, our space operations centre in Germany and ESA’s technical heart in the Netherlands, and it even took over our headquarters in Paris, France.
Download a free app by the artist to spot and collect Invader art at ESA establishments and all over the world. Gain points by taking pictures of the mosaics and compare your scores.

A l'aéroport Roissy Charles de Gaulle, pas très loin du terminal 1.
La mosaïque originale signée Invader avait été posée par Invader le 26 juillet 2002.
Elle avait été arrachée ... et a été réactivée en septembre 2017.
On peut y accéder à pied assez facilement depuis la gare de RER B Aéroport CDG, terminaux 1 et 3.
Sur Flashinvaders, cette mosaïque vaut 50 points.

A low outlined space invader of the late ninetees of which I have never seen the original before. Because the street has been raised, the re-activated space invader had to be adjusted and misses half of the tiles. It might be the reason why this one is not flashable with the application FlashInvaders (as we speak in February 2020; more than 125,000 players and more than 6.5 million flashes!).
I flashed this one with other light conditions and and I succeeded.

PA_1478 [30 points]
This one is the first of a series of CryptoPunks mosaïcs made by Invader. CryptoPunks is a non-fungible token (NFT) collection on the Ethereum blockchain. The project was launched in June 2017 by the Larva Labs studio, a two-person team consisting of Canadian software developers Matt Hall and John Watkinson. The experimental project was inspired by the London punk scenes, the cyberpunk movement, and electronic music artists Daft Punk. There are 10,000 unique CryptoPunks (6,039 male and 3,840 female), all of which are made digitally scarce through the use of blockchain technology. Each one was algorithmically generated through computer code and thus no two characters are exactly alike, with some traits being rarer than others.
But this Cryptopunk PA_1478 is not a NFT anymore! He stands now on a façade in Paris, just above the place where New Rose, the legendary records shop and label was. [ # Invaderwashere ]

Quai d'Orsay: The Quai d'Orday is a quay in the 7th arrondissement of Paris. It is part of the left bank of the Seine opposite the Place de la Concorde.
The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs is located on the Quai d'Orsay, between the Esplanade des Invalides and the National Assembly at the Palais Bourbon, and thus the ministry is often called the Quai d'Orsay by metonymy. The building containing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was built between 1844 and 1855 by Jacques Lacornée. The statues of the facade were created by the sculptor Henri de Triqueti (1870). The Treaty of Versailles (1919) was negotiated and written at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The quai d'Orsay has a length of 1270. meters and a width of 29 meters.
Weather: Mostly sunny, almost sunset, 15° C

Another beautiful re-activated space invader with mirroreyes from which I have never seen the original. PA_1221 is within walking distance and almost flashable from the same point of view. Oldest photo on Flickr of the original is made by Tofz4u in June 2003.
The magic of finding a space invaders by a group of American tourist just leaving the métro station of line 7. I pointed out that there was another one, PA_1221 and they were even more happy!
