  1. ESA-Mission mit Beteiligung der TU Braunschweig 🚀

    ☄️ Wenn der #Asteroid #Apophis am 13. April 2029 an der Erde vorbeifliegt, wird ein an der #TUBraunschweig entwickeltes Magnetometer direkt auf seiner Oberfläche geophysikalische Messungen durchführen.

    🛰️ Das Instrument MARIE ist Teil eines landenden CubeSats der #ESA-Mission RAMSES und soll gemeinsam mit weiteren Experimenten die Auswirkungen des außergewöhnlich nahen Erdvorbeiflugs untersuchen.

    Scientists calculated that the #space rock will be bright enough for naked eye viewing across #Europe, #Africa, and #Asia, and it will pass closer to our #planet than many #weather #satellites.

  13. Paul Simon presents a combination of dynamical, space weathering, and spectral models to try and figure out just where near-Earth asteroids visited by spacecraft came from.

    Suggests Eros, #Itokawa, #Torifune, and #Apophis all came from the main-belt asteroid Flora 1.2 billion years ago.

  35. RE: mastodon.social/@coreyspowell/

    Apophis is one of those close orbit asteroids that newspapers like to say is definitely going to destroy us on some future date because if it's not 'Aliens' its 'Doomsday' with Space stories.

    Instead looks like we're going to land on it and follow it around!
