Animation / Game: Virtual UFO

OSNI - Objets Scientifiques Non Identifiés - (Unidentified Scientific Objects ) is a regular event organized by the Historical Heritage Department and the Common Documentation Service.

No longer housed in the Science and Pharmacy BUs, they are now being dematerialized, under the effect of confinement, and are landing on the networks to whet your curiosity and surprise you even more.

Witnesses to the history of science and technology, these objects from the University's heritage collections have become mysteries whose function, use and even name have been forgotten!

The principle

For one month, an object is offered to your sagacity: it's up to you to find out what it is.

To put you on the right track, a visual or audio clue is unveiled, every week, on the BU website and Facebook pages, as well as on the Historic Heritage department's website and Instagram account.

To play

Send the name of the OSNI before December 18 to this e-mail address.

At the end, a draw from among the correct answers will determine the winner, with a very real gift up for grabs.
