In this work, we propose a new statistical formulation to model ejecta generated by artificial impacts onto asteroid surfaces. The work focuses on a novel framework with which we can have a modular description… Read More »A new Icarus paper on modelling asteroid ejecta clouds

This work shows an in-depth analysis to find the best targets for in-orbit sample collection missions. To do so, we focus on the macroscopic properties of the asteroids (i.e., density and size) and analyse a series of possible materials. In… Read More »New paper about asteroid sample collection in Acta Astronautica
