Abstract Near‐Earth asteroid (101955) Bennu is an active asteroid experiencing mass loss.
The activity manifests itself in the form of ejection events emitting up to hundreds of …

The 99942 Apophis close encounter with Earth in 2029 may provide information about
asteroid's physical characteristics and measurements of Earth's effects on the asteroid …

The asteroid 99942 Apophis is a Near Earth Asteroid, which was just recently removed from
the Potentially Hazardous Asteroids list, since there is no risk of collision with the Earth for …

The space missions designed to visit small bodies of the Solar system boosted the study of
the dynamics around non-spherical bodies. In this vein, we study the dynamics around a …

The first proposed Brazilian mission to deep space, the ASTER mission, has the triple
asteroid system (153591) 2001 SN263 as a target. One of the mission's main goals is to …

The aim of this work is to verify the stability of the proposed orbital solutions for the third
moonlet (Delta) taking into account a realistic gravitational potential for the central body of …

ABSTRACT The New Horizons space probe led the first close flyby of one of the most
primordial and distant objects left over from the formation of the Solar system, the contact …

In this work, we investigate the dynamics of a spacecraft near two primary bodies. The
massive body is considered to have a spherical shape, while the less massive one is …

The potentially hazardous asteroid 99942 Apophis will have a very close approach to the
Earth in 2029. The encounter on its own may provide measurements of Earth's effects on …

In 2012, Brazil began the studies to send its first deep space exploration mission, ASTER,
which would be the first mission to orbit a triple asteroid system, 2001 SN263. We aim to …
