Life in the Pyrenees mountains

Exploring life at an observatory on the top of the Pyrenees mountains. The Pyrenees mountains act as a barrier between France and Spain. Scientists explore space at the Pic du Midi observatory. The observatory is located on the mountain because there is less pollution and purer air to give better images of the stars and space. The scientists not only work at the observatory, they also live there.
