CHECK OUT THE NEW BINARY ASTEROID

Hey Space Placers!

We continue to learn more about our solar system almost every single night.

Here is the latest binary asteroid .


Range-Doppler radar images of near-Earth asteroid 2016 AZ8 with range resolution (vertical axis) of 7.5 m/pixel and Doppler frequency resolution (horizontal axis) of 0.03 Hz where (left) is the sequence of images over the almost 40 min of data and (right) is the first frame, obtained over about 3 min.

Pretty amazing what we can see with radar on these worlds.
