I missed this year’s Hayabusa Symposium, sorry. I was too tired from European Time to switch to Japan Time. And besides, the European Asteroid Size conference was looking forward, Hayabusa meetings are now (mostly…) looking back. In any case, this… Read More »2024 Hayabusa Symposium
Nothing in Earth and Planetary Science Letters this issue. This is becoming a thing. And I see nothing to mention in AIAA Journal, and the AIAA’s Journal of Guidance, Control, and Dynamics either.
Nothing new for anyone who already works in NEOs, but… here’s a nice overview paper. In the latest issue of Remote Sensing (vol. 16, issue 22, November #2): Espartero, F. Cubas, J. Nespral, D. et al. New Astronomical Observatory Design… Read More »Note, Paper: Get A Sense Of All Them

The EU-ESA Workshop on Size Determination of Potentially Hazardous Near-Earth Objects continues. For Tuesday, 11/12/24, we continued phase curves, but after that it was thermal infrared observations and polarimetry: https://indico.esa.int/event/530/contributions/ Absolute magnitudes and photometry from the MPC catalog Peter Vereš (Minor… Read More »Workshop: Size Determination of Potentially Hazardous NEOs pt.

Ongoing: the EU-ESA Workshop on Size Determination of Potentially Hazardous Near-Earth Objects (https://indico.esa.int/event/530). Step one in “Planetary Defense” is, of course, to spot the Potentially Hazardous Objects (PHOs). But step two is also important: gauge the size of the threat object.… Read More »Workshop: Size Determination of Potentially Hazardous NEOs
