Vesta, the key to the
origins of the Solar System

NEWS: The final article of the project has been published on Icarus (Turrini et al. 2018). The article and its results were covered by a press release by the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (see the News & Team Activities section for the full coverage).

With this publication the project reached its natural conclusion: thank you all for staying with us until now!
