MARS_58 [50 points]
A flying gabian over the Vieux Port. Seen by many tourists on their way to Fort Saint-Jean and Mucem.
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.

One the biggest projects of Invader in the year 2006 in Paris was this PA_689. About 18 space invaders on a row. Estimated format: 18,5 meters wide, 16 centimeters high. Totally about 7300 mosaïque tiles used for this one.
Re-activated in early 2021 and flashed by me in the evening about 11 months later.

This one was not easy to find but Mehdi found this one after a few streets in the Medina of Rabat. But it was not flashable when we were there. This is a re-activated space invader and for one reason or another it was not approved by the master Invader so not flashable. Maybe a bonus for our next visit.

Back in town on Place de la Concorde after a couple of years of absence (no idea when the original has been deleted). Re-activated like many others in 2015, not only for the online game FlashInvaders but also to restore the invaders which are gone as much as possible.

The biggest space invader on planet Earth!
Place Igor Stravinsky can be considered the "trone" of street art. Two huge fresques, one of Jef Aerosol Chut! made in 2011 and the 'fresque' of Obey (Shephard Fairey) called « The futur is unwritten » and created within 48 hours in August 2019 go a welcome new one made by Invader in December 2019; PA_1432.
On Wednesday December 4, a new iconic alien from Invader came to invade Paris. So far, nothing very unusual, the French artist installs his works in the streets of the capital since 1996. However, this time, it is 447 tiles 9 m high by 7 m wide that constitute the monumental mosaic of the invader from elsewhere, the largest work of the Street Artist. Entitled PA_1432, in other words the 1432nd tiled work installed in Paris.

Café brasserie La Lune des Pirates has been invaded by a pirate flag. Seen from Place Parmentier.
On June 12, 2025, the news came that the northern French city of Amiens had been visited by my favorite artist Invader. In total he installed 16 space invaders. In the days that followed, the idea came to visit Amiens on the weekend of June 28 and 29 to search, capture and flash them. And so it happened..

A reactivation made it possible to flash this 2008 space invader near Tour Eiffel. And a good reason for a photo update of this one in the 15ème arrondissement as well. Instead of Stewart capturing me, I made a selfportait for this one. Same setting as in the year 2008.

A bit hidden in the Oudayas neighbourhood this khamsa is on a white wall. The hamsa (or khamsa) also known as the hand of Fatima, is a palm-shaped amulet popular throughout North Africa and in the Middle East and commonly used in jewellery and wall hangings. Depicting the open hand, an image recognized and used as a sign of protection in many times throughout history, the hamsa has been traditionally believed to provide defense against the evil eye.

The oldest space invader of Clermont-Ferrand and one of the oldest space invaders in France and the world. Still active in the historic center of Clermont-Ferrand on a quiet location.

Not only all Amsterdammers have to wear a face mask to protect themselves and others for COVID-19. This Amsterdam statue also wears a mouth mask neatly. An unknown person climbed on the pedestal of De Stedemaagd to provide it with a mouth mask. The well-known statue at the entrance of the Vondelpark at the Max Euweplein is a personification of our city. Sitting on a chair, she invites people to enter the Vondelpark with her right hand. In her left hand she is holding a shield with the coat of arms of our city. And together withs space invader AMS_26.

I have encountered this space invader already back in November 2005. The wall was repainted and they painted over this one as well. It is said that there was a period when the invader was visible in the original colors because the wall was sandblasted, but in November 2007 the invader was finally removed from the wall. I missed this 2016 re-activation. Due to the low activity of Invader in 2021 and early 2022, I have the time to find, flash and photograph all space invaders that have never been visited.

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 second cryptopunk space invader landed in Paris. This time in the 18ème arrondissement in the quartier Goutte d'Or above the Olympic Café.
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.

MARS_35 [40 points]
Marseille is the capital of Pastis and the most iconic pastis brand is "51". Love this one near the Vieux Port and La Canabière.
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.

Invader likes to make such tiled poster mosaics in recent years. This one is located in the neighbourhood Préfecture not far from the Cours Julien.

The sea resort town of La Ciotat has been invaded as well. As we speak (January 2016) a total of 9 invaders installed during 4 waves. This one with FlashInvader colors was installed in the Summer of 2014. Just for the record, it was my personal 350th space invader flashed with the application FlashInvaders.
We didn't have the time to hunt for some other space invaders in La Ciotat. We know there are a few more including a good re-activated one.
