NEODyS provides information and services for all Near Earth Asteroids. Each NEA has its own dynamically generated home page providing information and services, and a search facility puts the information in easy reach.
The NEODyS service is in some circumstances time critical (e.g., during special observation campaigns for asteroids at risk of being lost and/or with Virtual Impactors). To increase the availability of the service, and thanks to the project Unicorn-OAM, we have installed a duplicate NEODyS system at the University of Valladolid (Spain). Together with the original system at the University of Pisa (Italy), the new site guarantees availability even in case of network failures. The two systems are kept aligned, but occasionally there could be a delay in the update of one of the two, in particular in case of network problems.
We are doing an effort to provide NEODyS with online help and captions. However, it is obviously not possible to explain all the technicalities involved in such a complex information system. We recommend the users to consult also the Tumbling Stone site for more user friendly information, including an illustrated dictionary of technical terms, and comments on the most relevant events and discoveries about Near Earth Asteroids.
The same services for other asteroids, including all numbered and multiopposition orbit objects, can be accessed at AstDys.
