Huge Amounts of Data Ingested Thanks to UW Interns by Nate Tellis One of the things that has made the Asteroid Institute’s work possible is the availability of excellent photometric catalog data from high-quality surveys performed over the last decades. The asteroid discovery work done by the...
The Asteroid Institute launches Precovery API, a benefit to the entire astronomy community. By Kathleen Kiker In August 2022 the Asteroid Institute announced our Precovery API, an astrodynamic service running on the Asteroid Discovery Analysis and Mapping (ADAM) platform. Precovery looks for observations of an object in...
The Asteroid Institute is seeking to make computational astronomy easier at scale Sometimes, that means running large workloads on the cloud for asteroid discovery, object precovery, and impact probability analysis. But sometimes, we need a tool to help us do the little things that take up...

The B612 Asteroid Institute and our Vera Rubin Observatory partners met for a hackathon in person for the first time in two years. Among our goals was bringing the first of our astrodynamics services, Asteroid Precovery, online for internal testing. Asteroid Precovery is part of the...
The B612 Asteroid Institute’s Asteroid Discovery Analysis and Mapping (ADAM) project continues to make progress. The acronym for our ADAM project has also evolved (replacing Machine with Mapping). This can be summarized by an article in the Financial Times on the need for mapping the...
