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.
