NEO Colors from The Mission Accessible Near-Earth Object Survey (MANOS)
Nicholas Moskovitz, Theodore Kareta, Samantha Hemmelgarn +13
We present spectro-photometric griz colors for 189 near-Earth objects (NEOs) collected by the Mission Accessible Near-Earth Object Survey (MANOS). Data acquisition involved non-sim…
Catastrophic disruption of asteroid 2023 CX1 and implications for planetary defense
Auriane Egal, Denis Vida, François Colas +94
Mitigation of the threat from airbursting asteroids requires an understanding of the potential risk they pose for the ground. How asteroids release their kinetic energy in the atmo…
On The Lunar Origin of Near-Earth Asteroid 2024 PT5
Theodore Kareta, Oscar Fuentes-Muñoz, Nicholas Moskovitz +2
The Near-Earth Asteroid (NEA) 2024 PT5 is on an Earth-like orbit which remained in Earth's immediate vicinity for several months at the end of 2024. PT5's orbit is challenging to p…
Telescope-to-Fireball Characterization of Earth Impactor 2022 WJ1
Theodore Kareta, Denis Vida, Marco Micheli +10
Comparing how an asteroid appears in space to its ablation behavior during atmospheric passage and finally to the properties of associated meteorites represents the ultimate probe…
Photometry of the Didymos system across the DART impact apparition
Nicholas Moskovitz, Cristina Thomas, Petr Pravec +78
On 26 September 2022, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted Dimorphos, the satellite of binary near-Earth asteroid (65803) Didymos. This demonstrated the…
Characterisation of the new target of the NASA Lucy mission: asteroid 152830 Dinkinesh (1999 VD57)
J. de León, J. Licandro, N. Pinilla-Alonso +3
The NASA Lucy mission is aimed at the study of the very interesting population of Jupiter Trojans, considered as time capsules from the origin of our solar system. During its journ…
Ejecta from the DART-produced active asteroid Dimorphos
Jian-Yang Li, Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Tony L. Farnham +61
Some active asteroids have been proposed to be the result of impact events. Because active asteroids are generally discovered serendipitously only after their tail formation, the p…
