NEAR's Multispectral Imager (MSI) recorded over 300 images of asteroid 253 Mathilde during a flyby on June 27, 1997. Images were acquired at 0.70 ยตm at solar phase angles from 40 โข to 136 โข . These data, combined with telescopic observations at phase angles from 1 โข to 16 โข were used to derive a pho
Image data from the DS1 encounter with Asteroid 9969 Braille and data from a coordinated ground-based photometric observing campaign are combined to study the physical properties of this small Mars crosser. From telescope data the object's brightness was found to vary by up to 0.5 mag from night to
