This conference was about: The Space Conquest by Mankind - its strength and its limits. It was lead by Patrick Baudry (second French astronaut).
The conference was in 2 parts, in the first time a movie about STS-51-G was screened (commented by Mr Baudry), then the public could ask questions at Mr Baudry about this mission, about space in general and about futur space projects, like moon colonisation. At last an autograph session ended the meeting.
Here is 2 short videos (in French) and some pictures:
