Produktbeschreibung

Asteroids and meteoroids are remnants of the early Solar System, providing valuable insights into planetary formation and cosmic evolution. While asteroids remain in stable orbits, some are nudged by gravitational interactions into Earth-crossing paths, becoming meteoroids or even impact hazards. Understanding these objects helps scientists develop planetary defense strategies, such as NASA's DART mission, which tested asteroid deflection techniques.

Their presence in space also presents opportunities for resource extraction, as asteroids contain metals like iron, nickel, platinum, and even water ice, which could support future space missions and colonization efforts. As technology advances, the study of asteroids and meteoroids will continue to shape humanity's understanding of the Solar System and beyond.
