Abstract :
The initial results of planetary radar experiments carried out by the DLR in collaboration with American and Russian groups are presented. The case and future prospects for a planetary radar project in Europe are reviewed. It is shown that the necessary capability and technical facilities for crucial radar follow-up observations of near-Earth objects such as 1996 JA1 already exist in Germany.
