This research is on the trajectory development and in-orbit exploration of active bodies in the solar system including asteroids and long-period comet, in order to perform close-proximity operations and relevant study.
Major investigations are towards mission design to rendezvous with target bodies owing to limited on-board budgets and scientific objectives of the mission
