Key NEO Report Links

Mark Eby — 12/26/2004 5:05:12 AM (archived)

Since I'm trying to keep my mind off other issues I thought now would be a good time to dig up links to all the key reports I don't have on my new computer since my old one crashed before copying the bookmarks.

Key NEO Reports

2003
Workshop on Near Earth Objects: Risks, Policies and Actions, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Global Science Forum (13 pages)

2002
Dealing with the Impact Hazard, by Morrison, Harris, Sommer, Chapman, & Carusi (49 pages)

2001
THE COMET/ASTEROID IMPACT HAZARD: A SYSTEMS APPROACH, Chapman, Durda, & Gold (19 pages)

2000
Report of The UK Task Force on potentially hazardous Near Earth Objects (59 pages)
(Html link to chapter pdf files)
(full report in pdf)

1995
The Near-Earth Objects Survey Workgroup Report, (85 pages)

1992
Spaceguard Survey (115 pages)

A bonus for historical perspective on current NEO news
UK NEO Site Summary of Current and Past Nonzero Torino Scale Ratings

I recommend the UK report for beginners wanting detail and the top one for a short synopsis. Some of the others are very technical. The oldest two are the most thorough, but are slightly dated.

Merry Christmas,
Mark
