Description | 2012 DR 30, a strange object from the outskirts of the Solar System,has been discovered at the end of February 2012. Due to its special, high eccentricity and high inclination orbit it does not fit into any other object class identified so far and may be a first member of a new one. Herschel observations will detect the thermal emission from this body and with these fluxes we will be able to derive physical properties (size, albedo, etc.) of our target. |

Mission Description | Herschel was launched on 14 May 2009! It is the fourth cornerstone mission in the ESA science programme. With a 3.5 m Cassegrain telescope it is the largest space telescope ever launched. It is performing photometry and spectroscopy in approximately the 55-671 µm range, bridging the gap between earlier infrared space missions and groundbased facilities. |
