Nasa Asteroid Mission

After its encounter with Eurybates, Lucy will continue its journey to study other Jupiter Trojan asteroids.

चांद पर मिला 730 फीट चौड़ा रहस्यमयी गड्ढा, NASA बोला- ऐसी टक्कर सदी में एक बार होती है

When Psyche arrives at the metal-rich asteroid in August 2029, it will slip into orbit and start mapping the surface. Scientists think asteroid Psyche could be the exposed metallic core of an ancient planetesimal

नासा का साइकी स्पेसक्राफ्ट मंगल ग्रह के करीब से गुजरते हुए उसकी खूबसूरत तस्वीरें खींचकर अपने मुख्य लक्ष्य 'साइकी क्षुद्रग्रह' की ओर बढ़ गया है.

Blue Origin has unveiled NEO Hunter, a mission designed to detect and deflect dangerous asteroids. Using CubeSats, ion beams, and kinetic impact, it aims to protect Earth and highlights the growing role of private companies in planetary defense.

In September 2022, as part of the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission, a spacecraft collided with the small satellite of the asteroid Dimorphos.

Asteroid 2024 YR4 is drawing global attention as a possible lunar impactor in 2032. Though the chances of Earth impact have dropped, a collision with the Moon could still create dangerous orbital debris. Scientists stress preparedness, exploring deflection missions and nuclear defense strategies.

Asteroid 2025 QV9: NASA के अनुसार, 100 फीट चौड़ा एस्टेरॉयड 2025 QV9 आज पृथ्वी के पास से गुजरेगा. हालांकि, इसकी दूरी 12.5 लाख मील होगी.

NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission has found presolar stardust grains inside Bennu’s samples. These tiny particles, older than the Sun, carry chemical fingerprints of ancient stars and interstellar space. Bennu thus serves as a pristine time capsule, preserving the earliest clues to the birth of our solar system.

A new study based on data from NASA's Dawn mission suggests that Ceres, the largest object in the asteroid belt, may have been capable of supporting single-celled life billions of years ago.

NASA’s DART mission successfully deflected an asteroid but also unleashed high-velocity boulders with unexpected momentum. These chaotic ejecta may alter asteroid spin and orbit, complicating future deflection strategies. A new study highlights the importance of accounting for such forces in planetary defence. ESA’s Hera mission will further in...

NASA has released the first-ever high-resolution image of the main-belt asteroid Donaldjohanson, highlighting its unique peanut shape.

Vesta, once believed to be a stalled protoplanet, may be a fragment of a long-lost differentiated planet. Using refined gravity data from NASA’s Dawn mission, scientists found it lacks a dense core, suggesting it was ejected during a primordial impact. This revised view may apply to other asteroids and reshape planetary formation theories.

NASA’s Psyche spacecraft, en route to a metal-rich asteroid, paused its thrusters after detecting a drop in xenon gas pressure. Engineers are investigating the issue while keeping the mission on track. Psyche will fly by Mars in 2026 before entering asteroid orbit in 2029.

NASA and international scientists closely tracked asteroid 2024 YR4, which initially showed a rare 3 percent collision probability with Earth. Although the threat has now diminished, the incident highlights the importance of asteroid surveillance, open data, and upcoming space missions like NEO Surveyor.
