Among other things, among these residues we find permeate milk, which an Ontario company decided to reevaluate by turning it into vodka. “Today, when you make cheese or whatever, you remove the lactose and make another product called permeate. There’s not much use for this product, so I got the idea to reuse it and take out,”…

“When I was a kid, my parents had an atlas of the world with an astronomy section. There was a big picture of Saturn with its rings that amazed me.” From these first emerging scientific passions, physicist Vincent Beaudon made his way. Today, the director of research at CNRS is working to understand the way particles absorb or scatter light, so that he can measure its abundance and physical properties at a distance, in Earth’s atmosphere or in the atmospheres of planets and exoplanets. “Science is first and foremost curiosity, the desire to understand what surrounds us. And when we…
