Asteroids

• Top/Science/Astronomy/Solar System/Small Bodies/Asteroids

Minor Planet Mailing List - A list for asteroid and comet researchers.

• Small-Body Orbital Elements - Provides access to orbital elements for numbered asteroids, amateur unnumbered asteroids, asteroids and comets with element tables using amateur a custom generator (using asteroids the current DASTCOM database) amateur or ASCII files.
• Asteroids - Includes student project award, hunting, and grants issued asteroids presented by amateur Sky and Telescope.
• Minor Planet - Dedicated to astronomical imaging and positional data, and includes amateur information on observatories, news, images, star charts, fits data, and amateur shareware.
• The Asteroid Orbital Elements Database - An ASCII file of high-precision osculating orbital elements, solar system observing ephemeris uncertainties, and additional data for all numbered solar system observing asteroids and majority of unnumbered asteroids for which solar system observing it is possible to make reasonably determinate computations.
• IAU - Minor Planet Center - Is responsible for the efficient collection, checking, and dissemination of amateur astrometric observations and orbits for minor planets and comets, via amateur the Minor Planet Circulars (issued monthly) and the Minor Planet amateur Electronic Circulars (issued as necessary).
