This project investigates asteroid surface topography to develop metrics for understanding their internal structures. By analyzing surface slopes, it aims to provide a cost-effective method for assessing asteroid characteristics, which is essential for potential deflection strategies and landing operations.
Understanding the near-surface and interior structure of asteroids is required in order to model changes to the asteroid’s trajectory, as may be necessary to deflect a hazardous asteroid, and for understanding the asteroid’s response to the landing of either humans or robots on the surface.
Here, I propose to investigate the surface topography of asteroids to develop a surface slope metric that can probe the near-surface and interior structure of asteroids from shape models alone.
