| Near Earth Objects: NEOs |
|---|
| Recent advances in ground-based, satellite and theo-retical astronomy have proved the Solar System’s dynamism and complexity — in particular, that some of its minor members, called Near Earth Objects may impact the Earth in the future. In the UK, the USA and Australia, parliamentary interest has been stimulated. This report sets the results of recent surveys in context and considers the risks involved. |
