Tytuł referatu: "Low-Velocity Impacts of boulders on the surface of asteroid Didymos"
Abstrakt: In 2022, the DART mission spacecraft impacted Dimorphos, the smaller asteroid in the Didymos-Dimorphos binary system. This system is the target of the European Space Agency Hera mission, with the Hera spacecraft scheduled to arrive in 2026 to conduct further post-impact research. The DART impact ejected a large number of rocks and boulders into the space surrounding both asteroids, some of which are re-impacting the surfaces of Didymos and Dimorphos. In this talk, I will discuss the potential effects of these boulder impacts on the surface of Didymos and their implications for the Hera mission.
