Dangerous collisions between asteroids and our planet, which occur at least twice every year, are the only natural disaster for which we have means of stopping. However, despite our advanced solutions to preventing catastrophic impacts, we face a more basic problem: We don’t know where in our solar system most asteroids are, or, more importantly, when they will hit Earth.

Lucky for us, Astronaut Ed Lu and the B612 Foundation are committed to meeting this challenge. The foundation’s Sentinel Mission, the first privately funded interplanetary venture, will map and catalogue near-Earth asteroids, helping to ensure that we are aware of potential asteroid strikes. Join Lu to hear more about why the mission matters and what technological innovations will make it possible.
