A week ago, the winners of the 4th Paul-Émile Victor Exploration Grant were announced. We’re honoured to share that Haptica Terra, led by Clara Richard (co-founder of NeurAstra) will receive support to advance her HAPTICA research, made possible by the generous support of the Paul-Émile Victor Foundation. 

✨ One week ago, the veil was lifted on the winners of the 4th Paul-Émile Victor Exploration Grant.  

Without further delay, here is the list of awardees: 
• Grand Jury Prize: Haptica Terra, by Clara Richard 
• Women in Exploration Award: Haptica Terra, by Clara Richard 
• Special Jury Mention: Antimachus Exploratory Mission, by Nicolas Moulin 
• Public Favourite Award: In the Footsteps of the Dehqan, led by the Albios association 

Congratulations to all of them, as well as to the seven other finalist projects, for their commitment right up to the very end! 

More broadly, we would like to thank once again the nearly one hundred project leaders who contributed to the richness of the 2025 edition of the Grant. We also extend our thanks to ENGIE for their continued trust year after year. 

All that remains is to wish you wonderful end-of-year festivities, before welcoming 2026 as Paul-Émile Victor would have done: with open arms, enthusiasm, boldness, and sincerity. See you very soon for the 5th edition of the Exploration Grant!

Our project Haptica Terra is proud to announce that it is supported by the Fonds de dotation Paul-Émile Victor, a French endowment fund created to preserve and transmit the values and legacy of the explorer Paul-Émile Victor, from scientific research to cultural and educational initiatives that reflect his humanist spirit and commitment to discovery.

We are honoured that Haptica Terra has been recognised as a laureate of both the Grand Prix du Jury and the Prix de l’Exploration au Féminin of the Bourse de l’Exploration Paul-Émile Victor, awards that support ambitious, meaningful projects of exploration and innovation.

Their support not only provides crucial backing for the realisation of our work, but also connects Haptica Terra with a vibrant community of explorers and pioneers who share a passion for expanding understanding and engagement with the world around us.

We are delighted to announce that Emily Crawley (Team S03) has been awarded the Flammarion Grant to support the development of her project:
“Balancing Necessities and Non-Essentials in Long-Duration Space Habitats”

This distinction recognises the originality and importance of her work, which explores how essential and non-essential elements can be harmonised to support human well-being during extended stays in space.

Congratulations to Emily for this amazing achievement!
