Space Mission Options for Reconnaissance and Mitigation of Asteroid 2024 YR4
Brent W. Barbee, Matthew A. Vavrina, Rylie Bull +17
Near-Earth asteroid 2024 YR4 was discovered on 2024-12-27 and its probability of Earth impact in December 2032 peaked at about 3% on 2025-02-18. Additional observations ruled out E…
Physical properties of asteroid Dimorphos as derived from the DART impact
S. D. Raducan, M. Jutzi, A. F. Cheng +39
On September 26, 2022, NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission successfully impacted Dimorphos, the natural satellite of the binary near-Earth asteroid (65803) Didym…
The Perturbed Full Two-Body Problem: Application to Post-DART Didymos
Alex J. Meyer, Harrison F. Agrusa, Derek C. Richardson +19
With the successful impact of the NASA DART spacecraft in the Didymos-Dimorphos binary asteroid system, we provide an initial analysis of the post-impact perturbed binary asteroid…
Momentum Transfer from the DART Mission Kinetic Impact on Asteroid Dimorphos
Andrew F. Cheng, Harrison F. Agrusa, Brent W. Barbee +66
The NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission performed a kinetic impact on asteroid Dimorphos, the satellite of the binary asteroid (65803) Didymos, at 23:14 UTC on Sep…
After DART: Using the first full-scale test of a kinetic impactor to inform a future planetary defense mission
Thomas S. Statler, Sabina D. Raducan, Olivier S. Barnouin +38
NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) is the first full-scale test of an asteroid deflection technology. Results from the hypervelocity kinetic impact and Earth-based obse…
Predictions for the Dynamical States of the Didymos System before and after the Planned DART Impact
Derek C. Richardson, Harrison F. Agrusa, Brent Barbee +33
NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft is planned to impact the natural satellite of (65803) Didymos, Dimorphos, around 23:14 UTC on 26 September 2022, causing a…
Fast, Safe, and Propellant-Efficient Spacecraft Planning under Clohessy-Wiltshire-Hill Dynamics
Joseph A. Starek, Edward Schmerling, Gabriel D. Maher +2
This paper presents a sampling-based motion planning algorithm for real-time and propellant-optimized autonomous spacecraft trajectory generation in near-circular orbits. Specifica…
