From space with love: will space materials save our lives on Earth?

Le Pouvoir caché des matériaux

In this new episode, we are tackling a tremendously important issue although very little talked about; what does Youri Gagarine’s flight in space in 1961 have in common with an artificial heart, a dental appliance and a life blanket used by firemen to rescue people?

They are all derived from technologies developed for space exploration.

An increasing part of human activity is derived from the space conquest initiated in the sixties: the internet, our daily communication means, geolocalization, meteorology, these are for the telecommunications sector, but every part of our lives is concerned. The European Spatial Agency claims more than 200 derived applications of its technology transfer program.

What is the future of space technology transfers? How can space materials continue to foster progress on planet Earth?
