The invention relates to a device for sensing (1) an object (2) in space. The device (1) includes a pressure element (4) configured such to be in direct mechanical engagement with the space object (2) to be sensed. The device (1) includes at least two resealable elements (7) movable between an open position, provided for sensing the space object (2), and a closed position, for retaining the space object (2). The device (1) further includes a means (6) for mechanically transmitting the movement of the pressure element (4) to each resealable element (7). The mechanical transmission means (6) is configured such as to move each resealable element (7) between the open position and the closed position by pressing the space object (2) onto the pressure element (4).
