i had to climb up the roof-ladder of the building two doors down-- entrance is through the alley south of melrose. not that hard to get up-- basically a scamper up one story, then a short climb over the roof to get a clear shot. sadly, the great obey piece across the street is much harder to get access to-- i cased a couple of buildings but got yelled at by people inside, and the alley ladders were totally latched off.

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).
In the background Église Saint Severin.

Mosaic art installed at ESA’s spacecraft operations centre ESOC in Darmstadt, Germany. French artist Invader is installing his iconic art at ESA establishments all over Europe and even on the International Space Station.
The European Space Operations Centre ensures the smooth working of spacecraft in orbit. Its control rooms, linked to ground stations all over the world, track and control satellites, and carry out payload operations and routine systems monitoring.
After ESA astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti found a space invader called ‘Space2’ in the Columbus space laboratory, the space-themed art has appeared at the European Astronaut Centre in Cologne, Germany and at ESA’s Redu Centre in Belgium, where satellites are controlled and tested as part of ESA’s ground station network.
Mission control believes Invader will organise more invasions and activate aliens at other ESA establishments throughout the year. Follow their progress on Twitter via #space2iss and #SpaceInvader.
