The Russian Academy o f Sciences, the Russian Foundat ion for Basic Research, Saint Petersburg Scient ific Center of RAS, the Inst itute of Applied Astronomy o f RAS invite you to participate in the International scient ific conference «Asteroid-Co met Hazard-2009» which will be held 21-25 September 2009 in St. Petersburg. The purposes of the conference are to provide a commo n forum for experts of diverse background and disciplines to come and exchange informat ion and ideas, to recommend subsequent development of research, to attract public attention to severe hazard due to asteroids and co mets approaching the Earth and necessit y of more act ive international cooperation o f the research directed to protection of civilizat ion fro m this hazard.

Topics to be discussed
It is supposed to discuss the next topics: 1. Study of small bodies of the So lar system (phys ics, dynamics, origin and evo lution o f asteroids, comets, meteoroids). 2. Asteroid-co met hazard (origin and dynamic evo lution of objects approaching the Earth), observat ions, physical properties, cataloguing, data bases, estimat ion of co llis io n probabilit y wit h the Earth and other bodies). 3. Collisio ns of cosmic bodies wit h the Earth (study o f the traces of past catastrophes, modeling of co llis io ns and their consequences, the thresho ld for global catastrophe). 4. Counteraction (discovering hazardous cosmic objects, methods and means o f act ing upon near-Earth objects, organizat ion o f passive and active counteracting the asteroid and comet impacts, the techno logies to address the study o f asteroids and co mets in nearEarth space, missio ns to hazardous bodies). 5. International-legal aspects of counteracting the impact hazard. Collaboration of different countries in solving the problem. Dealing wit h mass-media.
