Abstract

One of the biggest open questions in the field of asteroid mining are the unknown characteristics and composition of more than 99% of the discovered objects. In order to minimize the risks of false investment, this uncertainty has to be diminished. One strategy to overcome this is to realize space missions that characterize the composition of asteroids in an efficient way. The above described issue is addressed in this paper. A target accessibility analysis is presented, that is tailored for asteroid characterization missions departing from a main belt parking orbit. To enable and facilitate a flexible, non predefined and autonomous object selection, adequate database constraints based on the orbital elements of the targets at departure are presented that enable the filtering of non-reachable objects without excluding potential targets. The constraints are applied to all asteroids currently listed in the JPL Small-Body Database Browser. With the derived constraints, the used database can be reduced to 1% of its original size.

基于起始位置的小行星主带停车轨道数据库修剪策略
小行星采矿领域最大的悬而未决的问题之一是99%以上的已发现天体的未知特征和组成。为了最大限度地减少虚假投资的风险,必须减少这种不确定性。克服这一问题的一个策略是实现以有效方式表征小行星组成的太空任务。本文讨论了上述问题。提出了一种目标可达性分析,该分析是为从主带停车轨道出发的小行星表征任务量身定制的。为了实现和促进灵活、非预定义和自主的物体选择,提出了基于出发目标轨道要素的适当数据库约束,从而能够在不排除潜在目标的情况下过滤不可达的物体。这些约束适用于JPL小型天体数据库浏览器中当前列出的所有小行星。有了派生的约束,使用的数据库可以减少到其原始大小的1%。
