Scientific paper

We present resolved near-infrared images of near-Earth Asteroid 2004
XP14, obtained with the adaptive optics system on Keck II during July
2006. This is the first time a near-Earth asteroid has been directly
imaged from the ground. Our result illustrates the capabilities of
adaptive optics and complements radar and spectral observations.
