Odin is a Swedish satellite working in two disciplines: astrophysics and aeronomy, and it was named after Odin of Norse mythology. Within the field of astrophysics, Odin was used until the spring of 2007 aiding in the study of star formation .
Odin: Photon Sailer Starlight (オーディーン 光子帆船スターライト, Odin - Koshi Hansen Starlight), also known as Odin: Starlight Mutiny, is a 1985 Japanese science fiction anime film produced by Yoshinobu Nishizaki's West Cape Corporation which was previously known for Space Battleship Yamato (also known as Star Blazers).
A kinetic bombardment or a kinetic orbital strike is the hypothetical act of attacking a planetary surface with an inert kinetic projectile from orbit (orbital bombardment), where the destructive power comes from the kinetic energy of the projectile impacting at very high speeds.
But Odin’s team said the vehicle is likely tumbling through space, with little hope of restoring communications. Space is hard, and every bold mission adds lessons learned.
AstroForge's second demonstration spacecraft, initially designated Brokkr-2 and later renamed Odin, was also built by OrbAstro but uses a larger 100-kilogram satellite bus, and cost the company US$3.5 million. [11] Odin's mission is to perform a flyby of a near-Earth asteroid and determine if the asteroid is metallic. [7]

2022 OB 5 is a small near-Earth asteroid that passed within 0.00679 AU (1,016,000 km) from Earth on 5 August 2022. [2] It was the primary target of AstroForge's Brokkr-2 (Odin) mission, which launched alongside IM-2 in February 2025, and was planned to reach the asteroid around December 2025. [3]
This is a list of all spacecraft landings on other planets and bodies in the Solar System, including soft landings and both intended and unintended hard impacts.The list includes orbiters that were intentionally crashed, but not orbiters which later crashed in an unplanned manner due to orbital decay.
