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
