Asteroid detection is the study and practice of identifying and tracking asteroids in our solar system, particularly those that may pose a threat of impact with Earth. This research area involves the use of telescopes, radar, and other technology to observe and track the orbits of asteroids, as well as to calculate their potential trajectories and likelihood of impact. Detecting and monitoring asteroids is important for planetary defense efforts and for developing strategies to mitigate potential impact threats. Various organizations and institutions around the world are involved in asteroid detection and monitoring efforts to ensure the safety of our planet from potential asteroid impacts.
