Dr. Christian Feichtinger, Executive Director of the International Astronautical Federation (IAF), is emphasizing the need for global cooperation to tackle the risks posed by asteroids and near-Earth objects. He highlighted the IAF’s role in bringing together stakeholders worldwide to mitigate these potential dangers.
“Addressing the threats from asteroids requires a united global effort,” Feichtinger stressed. “No single nation can handle this challenge alone.”
The IAF works to promote collaboration among international space agencies, scientific institutions, and industry players. By pooling resources and knowledge, the federation aims to improve our ability to detect, track, and possibly deflect hazardous asteroids that could impact Earth.
Feichtinger’s call to action underscores the importance of working together to protect our planet. “It’s crucial that we join forces globally to safeguard our shared future,” he said.
