Talk:Asteroid
Masses of the classes
Does anyone have a list of mass ranges for each size class? If not should we start listing the size class/mass for asteroids we find on this talk page? Futrtrubl (talk) 02:32, 12 April 2014 (CDT)
- I don't know the ranges for the different classes, but we should list masses for the different classes here and only the extreme values (lowest/highest) in the article. — xZise [talk] 05:01, 12 April 2014 (CDT)
Data table
Below is the table for the different findings. Images as prove would be nice, although they should not be uploaded all here but instead to places like imgur. I guess to prove the values at least 3 images are required: One of the asteroid showing it's class, one of the vehicle without asteroid showing it's mass, and one with the vehicle attached showing the total mass.
It is possible, that the asteroid's mass is already shown in the Tracking Station. One image is fine then. I'm also added the size (something like diameter) if it is possible to determine that value easily.
Class | Mass (Mg) | Size (m) | Image link |
