The International Astronomical Union, Near Earth Objects (NEOs)
Review of the International Astronomical Union research activities on NEOs.
 
Near Earth Objects Maps
Several maps of the inner Solar System showing the discovery of NEOs from 1800 to the present.
 
Near Earth Objects
Introductory description, classification and NEO recent discoveries information.
 
The Exploration of Near-Earth Objects
Report by the Committee on Planetary and Lunar Exploration of the National Academy of Sciences.
 
NEOs - Near Earth Objects

Asteroid Comet Impact Hazards
NASA Ames Research Center Asteroid Comet Impact Hazards Website.
 
Asteroids images
Asteroids images by Italian Astronomical Observatories at Associazione Astronomica Cortina.
 
Near Earth Objects Dynamic Site
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 service by the University of Pisa.
 
List Of The Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs)
Parameters of newly discovered PHAs from the International Astronomical Union.
 
The Asteroid/Comet Connection's Consolidated Risk Tables for objects under recent observation & active risk analysis
Asteroid/comet impact risk monitoring data collected from risk monitoring Web sites.
 
Near Earth Object Impact Hazard
Armagh Observatory documents related to the threat of asteroidal and cometary impacts as well as links to relevant Internet resources.
 
Understanding Risk Pages
An article by Jon Giorgini, Senior Engineer, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, presented by Asteroid/Comet Connection.
 
Spaceguard Foundation
Spaceguard Foundation, an association aimed at the protection of the Earth environment against the bombardment of objects of the solar system (comets and asteroids).
 
The LINEAR Project
The Lincoln Near Earth Asteroid Research (LINEAR) project is an MIT Lincoln Laboratory program funded by the United States Air Force and NASA. The goal of the LINEAR program is to demonstrate the application of technology originally developed for the surveillance of earth orbiting satellites, to the problem of detecting and cataloging Near Earth Asteroids (also referred to as Near Earth Objects, or NEOs) that threaten the Earth.
 
LONEOS - The Lowell Observatory Near-Earth Object Search
LONEOS is a system designed to find Earth-crossing asteroids and comets, collectively known as near-Earth objects (NEOs).
 
Near Earth Objects (Asteroids and Comets)
General policy of the International Astronomical Union with regard to research on and public information about NEOs.
 
Comet put on list of potential Earth impactors - a New Scientist article
A comet has been added to the list of potentially threatening near-Earth objects maintained by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
 
Close Call With Asteroid 2006 XG1 In 2041
An asteroid is going to get really close to the Earth on October 31, 2041.
 
Near-Earth object
An article on Near Earth Objects by Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
 
Earth Impact Effects Program
Easy-to-use, interactive web site for estimating the regional environmental consequences of an impact on Earth. This program will estimate the ejecta distribution, ground shaking, atmospheric blast wave, and thermal effects of an impact as well as the size of the crater produced.
 
WhatOnEarth.com presents... The Torino Scale
As we enter the new millennium, the Torino Scale is Earth's new way to gauge the potential damage that may occur in the event of an impact from asteroids or other objects from space. As the Richter Scale measures the strength and potential damage from earth quakes, the Torino Scale will now be used to measure the potential for damage from objects striking Earth.
