BACKGROUND Odin was developed in ten months by OrbAstro for the U.S. mining company AstroForge and launched 2025-Feb-27 00:16:32 UTC on a SpaceX Falcon 9 from Launch Complex 39A, Kennedy Space Center. PURPOSE Odin is designed to obtain imagery of asteroid 2022 OB5 for a follow-up mission, named Vestri, which will aim to land on the asteroid. The missions are part of AstroForge's plans to make space resources available on Earth. SPACECRAFT Mass: 120 kg SPACECRAFT TRAJECTORY: Post-launch trajectory from AstroForge released Feb. 28, 2025. No tracking data was obtained for the spacecraft, so the accuracy of this prediction will degrade quickly.
