NEAR EARTH ASTEROID LIGHTCURVES V1.0

Published by National Aeronautics and Space Administration | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: July 18, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-07-17

This data set contains photometric lightcurves of near-earth asteroids obtained by Petr Pravec and his collaborators at Ondrejov Observatory. Lightcurves for 42 asteroids are included. These asteroids were included based on a slightly wider criterion for a NEA: q < 1.33 AU (rather than the standard definition of q < 1.3 AU). As a result, some asteroids may be included which other researchers would classify as Mars-crossers.
