Heritage cannot always be preserved, nor protected, unfortunately. Wars and bombings, or sometimes simply a lack of means can destroy inestimable heritage assets.

On earth and underwater, new technologies allow the gathering of an immense volume of images, 3D scans, and data, to document and preserve, to share between institutions, and also with the public. Different means of reproduction are available, from immersive visits to 3D printing.
