Space missions and defense of the planet:

Patrick Michel reveals to us what we know about these celestial bodies and their origin in the history of the Solar System.
He explains what we learn by examining them from Earth, but also thanks to observations made from space. He recounts the missions that made it possible to approach asteroids, then land on them, millions of kilometers away, and even collect samples to bring them back to Earth. This knowledge will perhaps make it possible to exploit the resources of these bodies, but above all to protect us against the threat of near-Earth ships which cut off Earth's orbit. We managed to deflect an asteroid in 2022!

Patrick Michel, doctor in astrophysics, research director at CNRS, Lagrange laboratory, Côte d'Azur observatory, Côte d'Azur university
