Precise Image-Based Motion Estimation for Autonomous Small Body Exploration

Abstract

Because they hold answers to questions about the origin of our solar system, comets and asteroids play a prominent role in NASA's roadmap for solar system exploration. This paper presents an algorithm for autonomous onboard motion estimation that will enable the precision guidance and landing necessary for small body sample return.
