Calling all amateur astronomers. NASA  in need of all amateur astronomers! The space agency wants your help discovering new asteroids and studying their characteristics.


Wednesday, NASA launched a new project called Target Asteroids. The goal is to get more details about asteroids called near-Earth objects or N-E-Os. Scientists want to know more about N-E-Os' positions, motion, rotation and light emissions. 

The project will support NASA's Regolith Explorer mission, scheduled for launch in 2016, that will study material from an asteroid.
