Abstract

The Aster mission is being planned to use a spacecraft to rendezvous with a near-earth asteroid, 2001 SN263, in 2018. This project uses the expertise of space engineers together with astrophysicists, working on solar system's small bodies, who are proposing the Near-Infrared Spectrometer for the Aster mission. (AU)
