Deep Interior: High-resolution Volumetric Radar Imaging of a Comet Nucleus
The next stage of comet exploration: The reconnaissance stage of the exploration of cometary nuclei, the most primitive of easily accessible solar system bodies, is in full swing with successful missions to comets Halley, Borrelly, Wild 2 and Tempel 1, and missions in progress (EPOXI and Rosetta) to Hartley 2 and Churyumov-Gerasimenko. This reconnaissance has so far yielded the discovery of an ...

متن کاملDeep Impact, Stardust-NExT and the behavior of Comet 9P/Tempel 1 from 1997 to 2010
We present observational data for Comet 9P/Tempel 1 taken from 1997 through 2010 in an international collaboration in support of the Deep Impact and Stardust-NExT missions. The data were obtained to characterize the nucleus prior to the Deep Impact 2005 encounter, and to enable us to understand the rotation state in order to make a time of arrival adjustment in February 2010 that would allow us...
