The month of June 2002, 15 years ago, marked the kick-off of six parallel preliminary studies carried out by ESA’s General Studies Programme (GSP) in order to analyse possible asteroid missions. Three of those studies were devoted to in-orbit telescopes for NEO discovery and characterization, other two were devoted to asteroid rendezvous missions and finally one for asteroid rendezvous and impact.

This year on 8 February marks the 50th anniversary of the fall of the Allende meteorite, the largest carbonaceous chondrite ever found. The atmospheric entry and impact happened at night local time, and were therefore well observed over the entire Northern Mexico. About 2 tonnes of fragments were later collected on ground in a strewn field of about 50 km size.
