Abstract
- The UN Conference on Near-Earth objects (NEO), held in New York, in April 1995, put into perspective the need to establish international cooperation guidelines for NEO planetary defense and research. Policy considerations are suggested to create awareness of NEO hazards through an international mechanism for sharing information. Global assistance should be provided for observation programs, space exploration and research. The capacity to face NEO threats in the future should also be developed.
