Abstract

As for China’s first near-Earth asteroid defense on-orbit verification mission,the defensive disposal of the potential risk of near-Earth asteroid impact on the Earth was verified. The scientific objectives,scientific exploration mission were put forward,the scientific payload requirements analysis was conducted,scientific payload configuration was proposed. This study may provide a basis for decision-making for the implementation of the future asteroid defense missions .
