Interview Asteroid Researcher Dr. David J. Tholen

With all the recent news about asteroids and comets, I figure you’ve got a lot of questions. Well, now’s your chance to get some answers. We’ve lined up astronomer Dr. David J. Tholen, a professor at the University of Hawaii, Institute for Astronomy who specializes in the search for Earth-crossing asteroids. Once again, visit the forum, post your questions for David, and we’ll pick through and send him some zingers. I’ll publish his answers in an upcoming issue of Universe Today.

Thanks!
