NEAR - Near-Earth Asteroid
Rendezvous
NEAR was launched in 1996 and in 2000
became the first mission to orbit an asteroid, the large
near-Earth asteroid Eros. It remained in orbit for a
year and landed on Eros in 2001.
Most data sets from the NEAR mission
are archived at the
PDS Planetary
Plasma Interactions (PPI) Node and the
PDS
Small Bodies Node. The
NASA
Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility (NAIF)
maintains the
NEAR SPICE archive. The Geosciences Node has one
NEAR data set:
NEAR Laser Rangefinder Data
