The Solar System small bodies can be observed from ground-based or Earth orbiting telescopes but only span over a few pixels on the images due to their distance to the observer, their small size and atmospheric conditions blurring the images. The highest spatial resolution on the surface is achieved by in-situ observations by spacecrafts orbitting their target.
