Feasibility study on the defense of near Earth asteroids
Facing the potential risk of asteroid impact,researchers have proposed a variety of defense methods.This paper conducts a numerical analysis of the feasibility of using different disposal technologies to defend asteroids of different sizes,densities,and warning periods.The feasibility of asteroid defense technology is evaluated,and defense scenarios applicable to different disposal technologies are provided.The corresponding key technical requirements are analyzed and determined.
