Raw Images from the Las Cumbres Observatory Sinistro Imagers Collected in Support of NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) Mission, Version 1.0

We obtained images of the NEO (65803) Didymos binary asteroid and supporting
calibration data with the Las Cumbres Observatory global telescope network through
several filters. These images were obtained in support of NASA's Double Asteroid
Redirection Test (DART) mission. The DART mission was a planetary defense mission
designed to test and measure the deflection caused by a kinetic impactor (the
spacecraft) on the orbit of Dimorphos asteroid around its primary, Didymos. These
ground-based observations were used to obtain light curves of Didymos and time the
mutual events of Dimorphos to determine the period change caused by the impact of
the DART spacecraft. This collection consists of the Las Cumbres Observatory Sinistro
Imagers raw images.
