Thermophysical characterization of the potentially hazardous near-Earth object 2024 YR4

The asteroid 2024 YR_4 is a potentially hazardous Apollo-type near-Earth object. Its highly eccentric orbit produces close Earth-Moon encounters roughly every 4 years. Based on the astrometry collected during the discovery apparition, the asteroid had a 4% probability of a lunar impact on 2032 December 22. A collection...

Metrics and Models for Gravity Tractor Demonstration Missions and Deflections

The gravity tractor is an asteroid deflection technology that uses the mutual gravity between a spacecraft and a small body to perturb the body’s trajectory. We develop low-fidelity and high-fidelity models to track the effects of a gravity tractor on a target body. As a case study, we simulate a demonstration mission...
