- SHOTPUT Survey of Hektor and Oterma Through Pulverization of
Unique Targets First Mission to Explore Trojans and Centaur Through
Flybys and Impacts PICS Fall 2008 - Alessondra Springmann November

educational activity at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California
Institute of Technology, and does not represent an actual
mission."
- Slide 5
- For planning and discussion purposes only A Unique Mission to
Unexplored Worlds 1 st mission to Trojan & Centaur (likely
primordial material) + a Main Belt Asteroid! 1 st visit to a
contact binary/satellite system! 1 st in situ investigation of
small body compositional gradient from mid- to outer solar system!
1 st release of two separate impactors in one mission to reveal
subsurface composition! Low risk, high science return William K.
Hartmann
- Slide 6
- For planning and discussion purposes only Scientific Rationale
Primitive small bodies hold clues to the origin and evolution of
the solar system Trojans and Centaurs are two major populations of
small bodies that have never been explored by spacecraft These dim
and distant objects have only been observed by ground-based
telescopes Centaurs are an accessible source of Kuiper Belt and
cometary material 5-6 A.U. vs. >40 A.U. William K. Hartmann
- Slide 7
- For planning and discussion purposes only Our Mission: SHOTPUT
Reconnaissance and impactor study of Trojan asteroids and Centaurs
Centaurs Trojans
- Slide 8
- For planning and discussion purposes only Background on Bodies
Trojans Discovered in early 20th century Spectral D-type asteroids,
dark, reddish Possibly captured during giant planet formation
Possibly formed in place and represent Jupiter accretionary
material Centaurs Further from Sun than Trojans Too distant from
the Sun to study in detail from Earth Thought to have originated as
Kuiper Belt Objects

- For planning and discussion purposes only Nature of comets -
organic content of target objects reveals possible genetic links
with Kuiper Belt objects farther from the Sun Implications for
solar system formation Formation of organic-rich comets close to
Sun has implications for Delivery of water to the terrestrial
planets Origin of life Theories of panspermia, delivery of life or
its ingredients to Earth Prebiotic chemistry at low temperatures
Organic Matter in the Outer Solar System

- For planning and discussion purposes only Has Dynamical
Evolution Occurred? Trojan asteroids Formed near Jupiter and were
captured into Lagrange points Dynamical capture - Nice model
Centaurs are on chaotic orbits Lifetimes of under 10 million years

known dynamic object with one that is possibly dynamic Morbidelli
