    Earth’s First Trojan Asteroid discovered by NASA’s WISE

    August 2, 2011 /

    A "Trojan" asteroid has been discovered sharing Earth's solar orbit by astronomers studying observations taken by NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mission. Trojans are asteroids that are gravitationally bound to a planet, but are not moons, because they do not orbit the planet. Instead they orbit one of the two stable points in front of or behind the planet, called Lagrangian points (L4 and L5 to be precise).

    Dark Asteroids Discovered, Possible Threat to Earth

    March 6, 2010 /

    An infrared space telescope, called the Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) has discovered several dark asteroids close to Earth that could possibly be a threat to our planet. Those asteroids are very dark and reflect less than 10% of the sunlight they receive, which makes them extremely hard to spot with traditional telescopes.
