MissionB612's mission is to protect Earth from asteroid impacts. Through studies and analyses, B612 works toward selecting and deploying technologies most likely to succeed in detecting and deflecting asteroids. B612 also delivers information and education advocacy programs to the general public, the scientific community and world governments about planetary defense on the best technological solutions to protect against asteroid impacts.MissionDesc

DescIn 2015, B612 made progress in programs focused on science, technology, and public education. This included work on the Sentinel Space Telescope, publishing and presenting papers, investing in synthetic tracking capabilities to improve asteroid discovery and providing staff and resource support for to launch Asteroid Day, a global education and awareness campaign.Our ongoing science and technology efforts included further analysis and refinement of the Sentinel Space Telescope design reference mission. We have carried out detailed modeling showing that Sentinel can, in fact, help us achieve our organizational goal of protecting the Earth from dangerous asteroids. In particular, it is capable of detecting numerous smaller (45 to 100 meters) asteroids that can strike our planet that will not be effectively observed by other telescopes. We showed that Sentinel can be optimized to work effectively in the future with the LSST telescope.B612 published a scientific paper entitled "Sentinel Mission Performance for Surveying the NearEarth Object Population," highlighting computer modeling showing the major contribution to asteroid searches possible with Sentinel. B612 presented the findings of that paper at the 4th International Academy of Astronautics Planetary Defense Conference (PDC), and at the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference.B612 also began a technical research project to investigate a technique called synthetic tracking that could greatly improve the performance of small telescopes at finding and tracking asteroids. We have successfully demonstrated synthetic tracking on ground based telescopes. We have shown that small space telescopes could dramatically increase our ability to discover asteroids at a potentially greatly reduced cost.We also advanced progress in the broader field of Planetary Defense through efforts such as Asteroid Day and the Planetary Defense conference. B612 has supported the Planetary Defense Conference from it's inception and in 2015 continued our financial support. B612 was a Founding Partner to a global awareness campaign called Asteroid Day. The first annual Asteroid Day event was held on June 30, 2015. B612 hosted a live web feed of key scientists from San Francisco in partnership with the California Academy of Sciences and disseminated those talks worldwide. Asteroid Day featured worldclass science panelists including many of B612's team and generated thousands of mainstream news articles, reaching billions of people across the globe.
