Robot Astronomy Talk Show: The Mass of Asteroids (Cameron Diaz, Ed Wasser)

Cameron Diaz teaches Robot IR-2 (Ed Wasser) how astronomers can measure the mass of asteroids from tremendous distances.

Specifically, it describes the formula F=ma and how it can be used in conjunction with measurements of the Yarkovsky Effect, a force that can push around asteroids other objects in space.
