SAN FRANCISCO, May 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Asteroid Institute, a program of B612 Foundation, today announced it is using a groundbreaking computational technique running on its Asteroid Discovery Analysis and Mapping (ADAM) cloud-based astrodynamics platform to discover and track asteroids. The Minor Planet Center has confirmed and added the first 104 of these newly discovered asteroids to its registry, thus opening the door for Asteroid Institute-supported researchers to submit thousands of additional new discoveries. 

Key Points: 
  • SAN FRANCISCO, May 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Asteroid Institute, a program of B612 Foundation , today announced it is using a groundbreaking computational technique running on its Asteroid Discovery Analysis and Mapping (ADAM) cloud-based astrodynamics platform to discover and track asteroids.
  • THOR recognizes asteroids, and most importantly, calculates their orbits well enough to be recognized by the Minor Planet Center as tracked asteroids.
  • The collaborative efforts of Google Cloud, B612's Asteroid Institute, and the University of Washington's DiRAC Institute make this work possible.
  • A program of B612 Foundation, the Asteroid Institute leverages advances in computer science, instrumentation, and astronomy to find and track asteroids.
