NASA Crater Detection Challenge
NASA’s Lucy spacecraft captured images of the Moon’s surface on Oct 16, 2022, after flying by the Earth for its first of three gravity assists. Crater rims are vital landmarks for planetary science and navigation. Yet detecting them in real imagery is tough, with shadows, lighting shifts, and broken edges obscuring their shape. This project invites you to develop methods that can reliably fit ellipses to crater rims, helping advance future space…
On the surface of the Moon, the only changes come elsewhere, when meteorites dig new craters. This bombardment is permanent, but most of the time by very small objects. That's why it is necessary to take photos at very high resolution for those who want to...
