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…

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…

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…

The Cyborg Astrobiologist: Matching of Prior Textures by Image Compression for Geological Mapping and Novelty Detection

P. C. McGuire, A. Bonnici, K. R. Bruner +5

(abridged) We describe an image-comparison technique of Heidemann and Ritter that uses image compression, and is capable of: (i) detecting novel textures in a series of images, as…

The Cyborg Astrobiologist: Porting from a wearable computer to the Astrobiology Phone-cam

Alexandra Bartolo, Patrick C. McGuire, Kenneth P. Camilleri +11

We have used a simple camera phone to significantly improve an `exploration system' for astrobiology and geology. This camera phone will make it much easier to develop and test com…
