Abstract
The study of asteroids, its composition and trajectories, has been a persistent interest in the space exploration community. In addition, they are also perceived as a great threat to life on Earth, considering the possibility of an impact with our planet. A considerable portion, around 15%, of the asteroid population are believed to be part of a double or triple asteroid system.
