Abstract
This essay addresses the importance of geotechnics and marine georesources in developing technologies. The study proposes a coastal and marine geoengineering approach that focuses on five domains (5G’s): georesources, geology, geotechnics, geomechanics and geotechnologies. These domains are considered in several engineering projects related to coastal, hydraulic, marine, and maritime applications. The reality of a world in rapid, continuous evolution has put into perspective a multidisciplinary approach combining different practices and coastal strategies. That is the main driving force that should be considered when dealing with geoengineering projects in general. Moreover, geological resources and the potential exploitation of mineral and rock raw materials boost innovative techniques and upscaling geo-robotic systems. Finally, the essay unravels new trends in challenging and extreme environments and natural hazards, highlighting emerging fields such as deep-sea mining, geo-exploration, offshore, coastal, harbour and marine geotechnics. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Abstract
The MiFiRE (Microgravity Fine Regolith Experiment) experiment, which will be launched this year on a suborbital space flight, currently scheduled for August 2023, was designed with the aim of better understanding the initial stages of planetary formation. The fundamental and embryonic question is to contribute to the study of how the mineral and rock particles, which do not have enough mass for the gravitational force to be influential, can then aggregate through electrostatic forces. In order to recreate the environment of deep space, it is assumed that the composition of meteorites that collide with the Earth, are mainly of silicate mineralogical composition or rich in metallic alloys (eg Fe-Ni). Therefore, in the experiment some fine material, identical to the lunar regolith (JSC-1), is used, in other words, amphiboles, pyroxenes, olivines and volcanic glass, along with two larger elements, a basalt cube and a metalic (siderite) meteorite cube (Octahedrite from Campo del Cielo, Argentina). It is intended that the particles be subjected to the microgravity environment and thus contribute to a better understanding of the general behaviour and the processes of preference of aggregation between the various components. This, in turn, contributes the characterization of the progressive development of planetesimals. This experiment was selected amongst 5 competing proposals in a contest launched by Massachusetts Institute of Technology's national representation, MIT Portugal, in 2020. © 2023 International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference.
