Tribute to Christian Pauchard, Rocket-Probe Engineer in Kourou Guiana Space Center (Author Jocelyne Pauchard)

This book speaks about the professional trajectory of a Rocket-Probes Engineer, Christian Pauchard, who designed and implemented the computerization of the Management Services at Kourou Guiana Space Center (KGSC).

Christian Pauchard was a Rocket Probe Engineer who enter the French Air Force at nineteen. It was a dream that drawn him there, the dream of a little boy who wanted to be an Aircraft Pilot. His dream led him to Chambery, where he met the woman who became his wife. They had a first child, and everything was good. Then twins babies were born, and the nightmare started... and the dream flew into a thousand pieces...

This man was a man of the land, an uprooted man, ignorant of the games of court and power played in this other society. As time passed on, he became a pawn in their hands. Between transfers and job openings, he was sent here and there, with the sole aim of securing their backs. The meaning of these transfers and forced relocations is enlightened by several events that took place in the family inside the walls of the house.

Despite the unforeseen course taken by his professional career, this man has accomplished a great work at the Guiana Space Center, where he designed, developed and implemented the complete computerization of the management and inventory management system at the Guiana Space Center in Kourou., a work for which he barely received any credit.

Discover the story of this man. This book is a testimony, but it is also a life lesson and a warning, bsince we all need to remember that things are not always what they seem to be.
