TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a community-led global planetary defense exercise with support from the NASA Planetary Defense Coordination Office to test the preparedness to respond to a potential NEO impact threat, and the target of their exercise was 2012 TC4, the ~10" diameter asteroid that made a close pass by the Earth on 2017 October 12 at a distance of about 50,000 km.

Physical Characterization of the December 2017 Outburst of the Centaur 174P/Echeclus
Theodore Kareta,Benjamin N. L. Sharkey,John Noonan,Kathryn Volk,Vishnu Reddy,Walter M. Harris,Richard Miles +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, visible imaging and near-infrared spectroscopy of Echeclus during the first week after its December 2017 outburst was presented at the Faulkes North & South Telescopes and the NASA IRTF, the largest outburst since 2005.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical Characterization of Active Asteroid (6478) Gault
Juan A. Sanchez,Vishnu Reddy,Audrey Thirouin,Edward L. Wright,Tyler Linder,Theodore Kareta,Benjamin N. L. Sharkey +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used photometric and spectroscopic data of Gault to determine its physical and compositional properties, and found a compositional affinity between Gault and asteroid (25) Phocaea.
