Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 12 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Handling asteroid data used to be a nightmare of web portals and conflicting spreadsheets.

Today, gathering a full profile on one NEO means jumping between the ESA's orbital element portal, then navigating to their impact risk page, cross-referencing that with a separate physical properties database. You spend an hour just logging in, finding the correct designation, and copy-pasting five different data points into a single spreadsheet.

With this MCP, you skip all of that. Your agent runs one query through Vinkius, pulling together the trajectory details, the risk score, and the physical estimates—all structured, clean, and immediately actionable.

Get a complete object profile with `get_object_physical_properties`

Manual checks require you to find the designation, then locate the physical properties database, ensuring the data is from the correct period. This often involves checking multiple academic or government sites just to confirm if an object's diameter estimate was updated.

Now, running `get_object_physical_properties` pulls that validated information directly into your workflow. The process isn't faster; it’s entirely different—it moves the effort from data retrieval to analysis.

What your AI can actually do with this

This MCP connects your agent to the European Space Agency Near-Earth Object Coordination Centre, giving you direct access to some of the world's most reliable asteroid tracking data. You don't need to navigate complex web portals or wrestle with differing academic sources; you just ask for the information, and it appears.

You can pull up a full object profile—including its orbital path, physical size estimates, and current risk rating—for any designation. This capability is essential for everything from scientific research planning to rapid incident response.

If your workflow requires synthesizing multiple data points—say, comparing an object's historical flyby record against its current calculated trajectory—this MCP handles the cross-referencing. You route all this mission-critical intelligence through Vinkius, letting any compatible AI client pull together a single, coherent report based purely on ESA standards. It’s planetary defense data, ready for your workflow.

Questions you might have

How do I check if a specific asteroid is currently high risk using `get_risk_list`? +

You simply query the list and look for the Palermo Scale or Torino Scale ratings. The data provides immediate, official assessments of cumulative impact probability.

What is the difference between `get_upcoming_close_approaches` and `get_object_close_approaches`? +

get_upcoming_close_approaches forecasts future events for a given period, while get_object_close_approaches retrieves specific data points for an object's encounters, useful for historical or focused analysis.

Can I get the orbital elements for many objects at once? Use `get_all_nea_list`. +

You can retrieve all designations using get_all_nea_list, but you must then query each one individually with get_object_orbital_elements to pull useful, actionable data.

How do I check the current status of this MCP? Use `check_esa_neocc_status`. +

Calling check_esa_neocc_status confirms that the connection is live and provides the service URL, ensuring your queries are sent to a working data source.

When I use `get_object_ephemerides`, what format do the coordinates arrive in? +

The data returns a time series of Right Ascension, Declination, distance, and visual magnitude at specific timesteps. You receive multiple points for one object, allowing you to plot its position over an observation window.

Do I need special handling if the orbital data from `get_object_orbital_elements` seems incomplete? +

The ESA NEOCC provides these elements based on available tracking arcs. If the data is sparse, it indicates insufficient historical observation to compute a full, stable trajectory.

What's the functional difference between results from `get_risk_list` and `get_special_risk_list`? +

get_risk_list tracks objects with non-zero cumulative impact probability. Conversely, get_special_risk_list flags objects that are of heightened scientific importance regardless of their immediate risk score.

If I run `get_all_nea_list`, how should I best process the resulting catalog? +

Since this list contains thousands of designations, you shouldn't attempt to query every object. Instead, use the returned designation IDs in subsequent tools like get_object_physical_properties for targeted analysis.

Do I need an API key to use this server? +

No. The ESA NEOCC API is completely public and requires no authentication. Simply subscribe to this server and enter any placeholder value in the API key field to start querying asteroid data immediately.

How often is the asteroid data updated? +

The ESA NEOCC updates its close approach data, risk lists, and impact monitoring tables multiple times per day. Orbital elements and physical properties are updated whenever new observational data becomes available from ground-based telescopes worldwide.

Can I query data for a specific asteroid like Apophis? +

Yes! Use the object-specific tools with the asteroid's designation. For example, query orbital elements for '99942' (Apophis), or get close approaches for '2024YR4'. The designation should match the official IAU format used in the NEOCC database.
