Gentlefolk, <<With an inclination over 10 degrees, and the delta-v required to get there, that seems unlikely.>>
The high inclination could easily be the result of an Earth encounter. On the other hand, lots of main belt asteroids share that inclination. Spectroscopy should settle the rocket body question. With digital cameras getting so tiny and the NEA catalog getting into shape, I'm wondering if a NEA flyby might be in ERPS future. Maybe a 1kg payload? ERPS might be able to "react" to incoming asteroid in a day or two, something impossible for NASA without a multimillion dollar program to do that. Daydreams... --Best, Gerald _______________________________________________ ERPS-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.erps.org/mailman/listinfo/erps-list
