Dear friends, spiders, earth, air, mountains, suns, clouds, and bacteria of the cosmic webs,

On January 28th, 2020, from the salt lakes of Salinas Grandes, Jujuy, the performance of AEROCENE PACHA attempts to achieve something wholly unprecedented in human history: to move free on air, lifted only by the sun and the energies of the atmosphere, without the use of any fossil fuels, lithium batteries, solar panels, helium or other rare gases.

Join this breath-taking moment of the first ever human, fully-solar free flight—an event only history will be able to judge—by staying where you are: experience flying with your feet on the ground through Aerocene Pacha, moving together through space and time, with love and care for Mother Earth, by following Aerocene on Instagram, and enter the era of Aerocene!
