- typpo 14y agoAll my sources are listed on http://asterank.com/about http://asterank.com/about. Most of the raw data comes from the Minor Planet Center and JPL. The intuition on how to calculate value and cost comes from a number of papers on the subjects of asteroid composition and other asteroid characteristics. The actual value calculations are just formulas that I created and tweaked based on several reference objects.
