Our Alarmingly Close Shave with an Asteroid

The video discusses the recent near-miss of asteroid 2017 OO1 with Earth, highlighting the challenges in detecting smaller asteroids and the potential damage they can cause. It also covers efforts by NASA and ESA to develop asteroid deflection missions to prevent future impacts. Additionally, the video explores the search for extraterrestrial life on icy planets and moons, emphasizing the difficulties posed by their lack of atmospheres and the potential for rapid temperature changes that could prevent habitability.
