The completed Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur International School in Manosque opens its doors in September 2010 to 410 students of 27 nationalities. It offers six language sections, and facilities for boarders.

Seen from the heights of the Mont d'Or in the winter morning haze, the International School with its green roof is barely distinguishable from its surroundings.

The ITER machine is based on the tokamak concept of magnetic plasma confinement, in which the fusion fuel is contained in a doughnut-shaped vessel. With a height of 29 metres and a diametre of 28 metres, ITER will be the world's largest tokamak. © ITER Organization
