Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This image, taken by NASA's Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous (NEAR Shoemaker) mission in 2000, shows a close-up view of Eros, an asteroid with an orbit that takes it somewhat close to Earth. NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope observed Eros and dozens of other near-Earth asteroids as part of an ongoing survey to study their sizes and compositions using infrared light.
