orbit@homecite-ref-1[1] was a BOINC-based volunteer computing project of the Planetary Science Institute. It uses the "Orbit Reconstruction, Simulation and Analysis"cite-ref-2[2] framework to optimize the search strategies that are used to find near-Earth objects.
On March 4, 2008, orbit@home completed the installation of its new server and officially opened to new members. On April 11, orbit@home launched a Windows version of their client. On February 16, 2013, the project was halted due to lack of grant funding.cite-ref-3[3] However, on July 23, 2013, the Orbit@home project was selected for funding by NASA's Near Earth Object Observation program.
