Quick Glance: Dart mission successfully deflects asteroid Dimorphos in space
  • Asteroid Dimorphos now orbits asteroid Didymos in less time.

  • The 570-kilogram Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) impactor impacted Dimorphos, which is about 160 meters across, two weeks ago.

  • The crater made by Dart and an exact measurement of Dimorphos' mass are of particular interest.

  • Currently, scientists are unaware of any asteroids that could collide with Earth in the near future; however, researchers have found approximately 27,000 asteroids near our planet, including approximately 10,000 with diameters more than 140 meters.

Quick Glance: NASA's spacecraft collides with an asteroid, passing a planetary defense test
  • Laurel, Maryland — NASA successfully crashed a small spacecraft into an asteroid on Monday, a 14,000-mile-per-hour collision aimed to see if such technology might be used to safeguard Earth from a potentially catastrophic hit.

  • It is in orbit around Didymos, a bigger asteroid.

  • A second spacecraft would be required to investigate the effect.

  • However, a moonlet, like as Dimorphos, orbits its larger sibling at a leisurely pace.

  • Indeed, only the larger asteroid, not Dimorphos, could be seen in the spacecraft's camera's live feed 90 minutes before impact.
