Asteroid Surface Dating

Asteroid Surface Dating is a planetary surface dating method that determines the age of an asteroid's surface features through the analysis of crater size-frequency distributions, surface space weathering effects, and compositional data to infer relative or absolute chronological timelines specific to minor bodies in the solar system.
