Near-Earth Asteroids: A Virtual Conversation w/ Michael Busch

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) are small solar system bodies in orbits that come near — or cross — the orbit of Earth. This illustrated online presentation explores NEAs as unique physical worlds, as impact hazards to Earth, and as accessible destinations for spacecraft. Our speaker, Dr. Michael Busch, is Research Scientist at the SETI Institute in Mountain View. He will answer questions during the video premiere via live YouTube Chat.
