An Algorithmic Approach for Detecting Bolides with the Geostationary Lightning Mapper
The Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) instrument onboard the GOES 16 and 17 satellites can be used to detect bolides in the atmosphere. This capacity is unique because GLM provides semi-global, continuous coverage and releases its measurements ...

Asteroid resource map for near-Earth space [PDF]
Most future concepts for the exploration and exploitation of space require a large initial mass in low Earth orbit. Delivering this required mass from the Earth’s surface increases cost due to the large energy input necessary to move mass out of the ...

TUMBUKAN TAK-ELASTIK PARTIKEL SEBAGAI MODEL TERBENTUKNYA ASTEROID
Abstrak Suatu asteroid diduga merupakan kumpulan partikel yang bertumbukan tak-elastik sehingga membentuk suatu agregat. Ikatan yang terjadi antar partikel diasumsikan hanyalah disebabkan gaya gravitasi.

Hayabusa2 arrives at the carbonaceous asteroid 162173 Ryugu—A spinning top–shaped rubble pile
Hayabusa2 at the asteroid Ryugu Asteroids fall to Earth in the form of meteorites, but these provide little information about their origins. The Japanese mission Hayabusa2 is designed to collect samples directly from the surface of an asteroid and return

An artificial impact on the asteroid (162173) Ryugu formed a crater in the gravity-dominated regime
Blowing a crater in asteroid Ryugu The Hayabusa2 spacecraft was designed to collect samples from the nearby asteroid (162173) Ryugu and return them to Earth for laboratory analysis. Arakawa et al. describe how the spacecraft's Small Carry-on Impactor was

Asteroid interiors play a key role in our understanding of asteroid formation and evolution. As no direct interior probing has been done yet, characterisation of asteroids’ interiors relies on interpretations of external properties.

Abundant ammonia and nitrogen-rich soluble organic matter in samples from asteroid (101955) Bennu
Organic matter in meteorites reveals clues about early Solar System chemistry and the origin of molecules important to life, but terrestrial exposure complicates interpretation.
