4. Exploration of Near Earth Asteroids

Near Earth Asteroids are of great interest for science, exploration, mitigation of possible threat to Earth and resources utilization (mining). They are explored now and in the coming years with multiple robotic missions from several nations. This session will cover science, instruments and technologies for Asteroid missions including expected experiments. Papers on exploration, impact mitigation, flight dynamics in the low-g environment and scientific topics are welcome.
