Read the full article about interstellar asteroid, `Oumuamua here: http://asteroid.lu/Oumuamua-eso On 19 October 2017, the Pan-STARRS 1 telescope in Hawai`i picked up a faint point of light moving across the sky. It initially looked like a typical fast-moving small asteroid, but additional observations over the next couple of days allowed its orbit to be computed fairly accurately. The orbit calculations revealed beyond any doubt that this body did not originate from inside the Solar System, like all other asteroids or comets ever observed, but instead had come from interstellar space. Although originally classified as a comet, observations from ESO and elsewhere revealed no signs of cometary activity after it passed closest to the Sun in September 2017. The object was reclassified as an interstellar asteroid and named 1I/2017 U1 (`Oumuamua). Asteroid Day is a global movement to protect Earth from asteroid impacts. Join us today!

During a press event on November 14, 2016 at the Museum für Naturkunde (MfN) (Museum of Natural History) in Berlin, a major campaign was launched to support scientific missions designed to increase our knowledge of asteroids and near Earth objects (NEOs), in particular ESA's Asteroid Impact Mission. The campaign, “I Support AIM (www.isupportaim.com) was initiated by the co-founders of Asteroid Day, the global movement to protect the world from dangerous Asteroids, and the Observatoire de la C.te D’Azur, one of the most important research institutions worldwide in the areas of biological and geological evolution and biodiversity.

Why, exactly, is it that we need more resources — telescopes, equipment, people, etc. — to discover more Near-Earth Asteroids? Eric Christensen, who is director of the Catalina Sky Survey at the University of Arizona’s Lunar and Planetary Lab, lays out the current status of NEO research and why more is needed.

Visit our website: http://asteroidday.org | Episode 3: Deflection. Asteroid Day experts talk about the importance of developing deflection strategies and various methods of response, from the Gravity Tractor to the ESA mission AIM. The unifying theme is that the more we learn about all of these objects, test and evaluate, the more we can be prepared for a possible impact or prevent it from happening. When you want to interact with such a body and try to deflect it, it can be very tricky, so testing is essential.

When dealing with near-Earth objects beyond the orbital elements, we need to find out how fast it is rotating, what it’s made out of, and what are its surface properties. Did Asteroids bring the minerals and water to create life on Earth and also have the ability to end it?

When experts working in the field of planetary defense determine that an asteroid threat is emerging, decisions must be made on how to act and how to communicate this threat to the public. Governments are traditionally challenged to make those decisions quickly. Global awareness and communication of where asteroids are, their properties and where they are headed is vital to designing a comprehensive planetary defense strategy.
