Successful Kinetic Impact into an Asteroid for Planetary Defense
R. Terik Daly, Carolyn M. Ernst, Olivier S. Barnouin +98
While no known asteroid poses a threat to Earth for at least the next century, the catalog of near-Earth asteroids is incomplete for objects whose impacts would produce regional de…
Orbital Period Change of Dimorphos Due to the DART Kinetic Impact
Cristina A. Thomas, Shantanu P. Naidu, Peter Scheirich +46
The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft successfully performed the first test of a kinetic impactor for asteroid deflection by impacting Dimorphos, the secondary of…
Spin State Evolution of (99942) Apophis during its 2029 Earth Encounter
C. J. Benson, D. J. Scheeres, M. Brozovic +3
We explore the effects of the 2029 Earth encounter on asteroid (99942) Apophis' non-principal axis spin state, leveraging refined orbit, spin state, and inertia information provide…
