Daniel Scheeres: The Future of Asteroid Exploration (Hayabusa2 and OSIRIS-REx Missions)

Описание: 2019 Purdue Engineering Distinguished Lecture Series presenter Daniel Scheeres

In this lecture, Scheeres discusses the technical challenges and state of the art of spacecraft operations in the asteroid environment. It will also give an overview of both the Hayabusa2 and OSIRIS-REx missions and discuss the extreme and exciting orbital dynamics environment in which these spacecraft are operating. We will also discuss future areas of research that are motivated by these missions, both in pursuit of new scientific discoveries and of autonomous operations about solar system bodies.

Daniel J. Scheeres is a Distinguished Professor and the A. Richard Seebass Endowed Chair at University of Colorado Boulder
