Description
We present a compositional classification of 374 V-type asteroids selected from the MOVIS catalogue. The classification was made by comparing the V-types colors with those of a sample of 65 HED(Howardites, Eucrites, Diogenites) meteorites from RELAB database. We found that 51 % of the V-type asteroids can be associated with Eucrites, 29 % with Howardites and 20 % with Diogenites. From the collisional family point of view, about 100 (27% of the sample) asteroids belongs to (4) Vesta family, 246 asteroids (66%) are not assigned to any family of asteroids and the rest 28 (7%) have been associated with various other families.

    Primitive asteroids in the Main Belt possess one of the most pristine inventories of materials in the Solar System. Main Belt primitive asteroids are particularly interesting due to clear evidence of phyllosilicates, i.e., silicates that have encountered liquid water and undergone chemical alteration. Since asteroids are thought to be likely

    NEOMIR: project statut of ESA's space-based infrared mission for NEO detection and early warning
    To warn about potential asteroid or comet impacts, we must first observe and discover these objects through dedicated NEO surveys. Most current and planned surveys are ground-based and use visible light, but they face limitations like weather dependency, limited sky visibility, difficulty detecting at low galactic latitudes, and inability to
