This sequence of three images, obtained by NASA's Cassini spacecraft over the course of about 10 minutes, shows the path of a newly found moonlet in a bright arc of Saturn's faint G ring. In each image, a small streak of light within the ring is visible. ... Scientists interpret the moving streak to be reflected light from a tiny moon that is likely a major source of material in the arc and the rest of the G ring. ... That arc, in turn, leaks material to form the entire ring. ...

DISCLAIMER: The larger the aperture, the more light a telescope will gather and the fainter the object you can see. Here is a range of magnitudes you might expect to see. Given excellent sky conditions and good optics, a well trained eye can sometimes add up to 0.8 magnitude to these values. Limiting Magnitude depends on much more than the instruments aperture. ... One formula is for aperture in inches the other is for aperture in millimeters. ... Aperture (inches) . ... 15.2 . ...

Estimating the NEO Population and Impact Risk: Past, Present and Future . ... Since most of the risk resides in the largest impactors, finding that fraction of the largest bodies, and that none of them has a significant chance of impacting in the next century or so, "retires" more than 90 % of the impact risk, including most of the risk of a globally catastrophic impact event. ... In the mid-size range, from ~150 m to ~1 km, the main risk is from tsunami generated by an ocean impact. ...
