Development of an Anchoring System for the Soft Asteroid Landing Exploration

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2019
The landing mechanism is easy to flow away from the surface of the asteroid, as there is nearly no gravity on the asteroid. One of the most problems for the asteroid landing exploration is to anchor the landing mechanism on the asteroid surface.
