Bruce Damer's talk on Asteroids and Comets: Mitigating Impact Risks & Stepping Stones to a Sustainable Space Program (IEET workshop, 2008)
- 1. Asteroids and Comets: (Near Earth Objects, or NEOs) Mitigating Impact Risks & Stepping Stones to a Sustainable Space Program Bruce Damer, DigitalSpace IEET Seminar, 14 Nov, 2008
- 2. Q: Where did NEOs come from? A: The very birth of our Solar System!
- 4. Q: Where are NEOs today? A: Everywhere!
- 5. > 1,000,000 Total by ~2020 > 300,000 Tunguska or larger
- 7. Q: Have NEOs shaped life on Earth? A: Yes! The evolution of our biota was uniquely impacted by NEOs.
- 9. Q: Could this happen again? A: Yes! Take a look… (thank you Carter Emmart, Hayden Planetarium)
- 11. Now that’s something to think about!
- 12. Risk Corridor for Apophis Case study: Apophis, 2029-2036
- 13. 2020 - Risk Corridors Other NEOs of Concern
- 14. Q: Have we visited NEOs? A: Yes! With robotics…
- 17. Deep Impact (Tempel 1 Comet)
- 18. Q: Could humans visit NEOs? A: Yes! Here is a way it could work…
- 19. Design for a human mission to a NEO
- 20. Popular Science, November 2007 … which was picked up by the popular media…
- 21. … and somewhat creatively misinterpreted!
- 22. Q: Can we Mitigate the threat posed by NEOs? A: Yes! Here is a way it could work…
- 23. Hollywood: Not how it would work
- 24. Kinetic Impact Pushes the asteroid via direct impact Orbit Determination Determining which NEOs are threatening Gravity Tractor Pulls the asteroid using mutual gravity as a tow-rope B612 Foundation 2008 Research Project
- 25. Kinetic Impactor: Assisting Gravity Tractoring
- 26. DigitalSpace/B612 Visualization of GT/Kinetic Impactor
- 28. Q: Could we use resources on NEOs to support exploration and settlement of the solar system? A: Perhaps!
- 30. Vehicle on virtual lunar terrain, excavating volume To the seriously studied
- 31. To the imagined
