Description
About the
NASA Postdoctoral Program
The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) offers unique research opportunities to highly-talented scientists to engage in ongoing NASA research projects at a NASA Center, NASA Headquarters, or at a NASA-affiliated research institute. These one- to three-year fellowships are competitive and are designed to advance NASA’s missions in space science, Earth science, aeronautics, space operations, exploration systems, and astrobiology.
Description:
This project will be focused on improving small-body impact monitoring capabilities in support of NASA’s planetary defense goals. With the advent of high-volume discovery systems such as the Vera C. Rubin Observatory and the NEO Surveyor mission, the number of newly identified near-Earth objects (NEOs) is expected to increase dramatically. This project addresses the resulting need for more efficient and accurate orbit determination and hazard assessment methods.
Research will center on: (1) developing new observation weighting schemes that exploit the expanded metadata available in the Astrometry Data Exchange Standard (ADES); (2) modernizing short-term impact monitoring through adaptive search algorithms for systematic ranging (Scout); and (3) refining long-term impact prediction via improved error modeling and encounter clustering (Sentry)
