	Deep Space One To FlyBy Braille Wednesday
		Astronomer Eleanor Helin, lead discoverer of the asteroid formerly known as 1992 KD, selected Braille from hundreds of suggestions submitted to The Planetary Society in a worldwide contest to name the object.
		Helin and The Planetary Society chose the theme "Inventors" for the naming contest to recognize the nature of the Deep Space 1 mission: It is a technology demonstration mission, not primarily a mission of scientific discovery.
		Helin is eagerly awaiting the first close look at one of her 25-year-old program’s discoveries.

		Eleanor Helin of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory immediately called Marsden and said that based upon his data, she had found 1990 telescopic images of the asteroid that could be helpful.
		Helin's group calculated the asteroid's new position and forwarded the information to Marsden and her colleague, Yeomans.

		Helin, who with Dr. Eugene Shoemaker of the U.S. Geological Survey, has conducted systematic search for asteroids and comets at Palomar Observatory for l0 years, discovered the new asteroid while obtaining follow-up observation of Comet du Toit-Hartley, which was last observed 45 years ago as single body.
		Helin initiated systematic search for Apollo-type asteroids in the early l970s, in collaboration with Shoemaker.

		JPL's Eleanor Helin says that quick follow-up observations of NEOs are crucial, but observations over the long term ultimately help scientist calculate a precise orbit.
		Helin's work has proven invaluable in identifying and tracking newly discovered objects; earlier this year, NEAT images became instrumental in the recalculation of the orbit of asteroid 1997XF11, when it was incorrectly announced that the asteroid would come perilously close to Earth in 2028.
		While Helin offers kudos to the creators of Deep Impact for the research that went into creating a very real, scientifically accomplished dramatic story, the need to move the story along required that Comet Wolf-Biederman's discovery and orbit confirmation be conducted much more quickly in the film than in real science.

	CNN - Survey: 7 new asteroids could threaten Earth - July 31, 1997
		Helin said there may be another 800 smaller asteroids that could threaten the Earth.
		The biggest danger to Earth, Helin said, is from objects called Aten asteroids that orbit inside the Earth's orbit with the sun.
		Helin, who has been searching for asteroids for 25 years, said the Earth's only protection from such asteroids is to find them well before they hit and then send up rocket-bombs to shatter them or divert the orbit.

		Helin had taken telescope images of this asteroid in 1990 during her photographic asteroid program.
		Answer from Dr. Helin: The telescope observations are made when there is no moonlight, so that the light from the moon doesn't hide the relatively dimmer light from the asteroids.

	Caltech Press Release, 11/18/1996, Eleanor Helin, DuBridge
		The asteroid, formerly known as 1990 WA, was discovered exactly six years ago tonight by Caltech/Jet Propulsion Laboratory planetary astronomer Eleanor F. Helin at Caltech's Palomar Observatory.
		"This is a member of a class of asteroids that are normally named, by tradition, for gods or goddesses," says Helin, who earned the right to choose the asteroid's name when she discovered it on an 18-inch Schmidt camera at Palomar.
		Helin, who has searched for near-Earth asteroids for 25 years, has been working to get the object's exact location tonight and to compile some other interesting facts.

		Helin said the hulking piece of cosmic debris is one of 24 so-called "Aten" asteroids, putting it in a small class of asteroids that frequently cross the Earth's orbit.
		Smaller rocks fall to Earth more often, Helin said, citing an incident in Peekskill, N.Y., in 1995 when a 27 pound meteorite hit a woman's car that was parked in her driveway.

		Despite what happens in the Hollywood movies, the chances of a globe-threatening asteroid or comet hitting the earth are increasingly small.

	NASA NEAT Press Release 1/29/97
		The discoveries, reported Jan. 10 by JPL planetary scientists Eleanor Helin, Steve Pravdo, David Rabinowitz and Ken Lawrence, were made possible with a few nights of clear observing weather and use of a sensitive, charge-coupled device (CCD) camera called the Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking (NEAT) system at Mt. Haleakala, Maui, HI.
		It is only the 24th Aten to be discovered in 21 years, since Helin found and named the first Aten in January 1976.
		The Minor Planet Center at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, MA, announced the discovery, reporting it as a parabolic comet, with an orbital inclination of 145 degrees from the ecliptic plane, and indicated that it would not pass any closer than 3.17 astronomical units (295 million miles) from the Sun.
