	Uppsala-DLR Trojan Survey (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The Uppsala-DLR Trojan Survey (UDTS) is an effort to study the movements and distribution of asteroids near Jupiter, specifically those in orbits similar to that of Jupiter (in the Jovian Lagrangian cloud) and those which Jupiter blocks from the Earth.
		The survey was carried out at the Claes-Ingvar Lagerkvist Astronomical Observatory in Uppsala, Sweden, by Gerhard Hahn, Stefano Mottola, Magnus Lundstroem and Uri Carsenty, in collaboration with DLR, the Deutschen Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (German Aerospace Center).
		The ESO Schmidt telescope was used to survey 900 square degrees of the Jovian L4 Lagrangian point during the fall of 1996 to identify the asteroids, and additional positions and magnitude data were detected using the 0.6-m Bochum telescope at La Silla Observatory.

		There is other independent evidence for an asteroid impact at Chicxulub, the team said, including the purported find of an asteroid fragment in an oceanic drill core, the amount of iridium spread around the world at the time of impact, and a telltale chromium 53 isotopic signature.
		The asteroid belt is the source for a smaller group of asteroids called "near- earth objects," which have broken from the belt and have the potential to collide with earth.

	Virtual Telescope Observes Record-Breaking Asteroid - New Data Show that "2001 KX76" Is Larger than Ceres \| SpaceRef ...
		Ceres, the first asteroid (minor planet) to be discovered in the Solar System, has held the record as the largest known object of its kind for two centuries.
		The previous record-holder, the asteroid Ceres, was also the first object of its type to be discovered -- by the Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi on January 1, 1801.
		Asteroid 2001 KX76 is even larger than Pluto's moon Charon (diameter 1150 km), adding fuel to the discussions concerning Pluto's status as a "major" or "minor" planet.

		Thus such asteroids are known as the Trojans and the mentioned programme is referred to as the Uppsala-DLR Trojan Survey.
		The object is seen as a small straight and sharp `asteroidal' trail (in 4 o'clock orientation) on the lower right side of the strong white line in the middle of the field, directly opposite the white dot (these marks were placed in order to mark the position of the new object on the film).
		It may also be that some asteroids have substantial deposits of icy material on or near the surface that may be set free under certain circumstances and mimic cometary activity.

		Based on the asteroid observations of sky surveys, not only asteroids with detectable colour variations could be found, but the general probability function of colour modulation of asteroids could be calculated even when the average variation is below the accuracy of individual measurements.
		ADAS, the Asiago-DLR Asteroid Survey, is the joint program among the Department of Astronomy and Astronomical Observatory of Padova and the DLR Berlin, dedicated to the search of asteroids.
		In the latest years, the increment and efficiency of the big surveys are facilitating the discovery of a greater number of NEO asteroids, in general, with fainter magnitudes.

		The UAO - DLR Asteroid Survey is a dedicated programme to search for and follow up asteroids and comets, with special emphasis on near-Earth objects (NEOs) in co-operation and support of global efforts in NEO-research, initiated by the Working Group on Near-Earth Objects (WGNEO) of the International Astronomical Union (IAU), and the Spaceguard Foundation.
		It is a kind of follow-on programme to ODAS, which had to close due to lack of further financial support.
		It should also not be confused with the Uppsala-DLR Trojan Survey (UDTS), which was conducted a few years before UDAS was launched.

		They were particularly interested in those that move in orbits similar to that of Jupiter and which are located `ahead' of Jupiter in the so- called `Jovian L4 Lagrangian point'.
		Thus such asteroids are known as the Trojans and the mentioned programme is referred to as the Uppsala- DLR Trojan Survey.
