How can we capture and relocate near-Earth asteroids?
In short: This NASA-hosted workshop examines diverse strategies for managing asteroid threats, exploring how international partners, private industry, and the public can collaborate to identify and move space rocks.
Held at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston, the session evaluates 96 ideas gathered from a recent Request For Information. The discussions focus on the technical and collaborative challenges of identifying, capturing, and relocating near-Earth asteroids for study, as well as developing effective responses to potential asteroid threats. The outcomes of these sessions will help NASA refine its future mission plans.
