• #RAMSES will study the modification of the asteroid physical and dynamical properties by Earth’s tidal forces, and will verify models on cohesion, strength and response to external forces of asteroids that are key to planetary defense.
• There is no risk of #Apophis impacting Earth for at least 100 years.
• #Hera, #ESA's planetary defense spacecraft already en route, will reach Didymos in October 2026 to study the results of #NASA #DART spacecraft's impact on Dimorphos
#ESA ’s and #JAXA ’s upcoming space mission #RAMSES, which will rendezvous with near-Earth #asteroid #Apophis in 2029, has a new website. Find information about the mission, science and the instrument #RPS contributed by #mpsgoettingen here: https://www.ramsesmission.space/

RAMSES Mission
There are new updates on the #RamsesMission website about ESA sending the spacecraft to #Apophis in 2029: https://www.ramsesmission.space/ .
(Officially "Ramses" is an acronym. In practice, nobody ever spells it out.)
#Apophis tauchte zum ersten Mal im Protokoll der 45. Sitzung des 21. Deutschen Bundestages am 28.11.2025 auf. Es wurde im Rahmen der Rede von Dorothee Bär (CSU) gesagt.
