Default DART and Ranger 9



Compare DART's images to those of Ranger 9's impact with the Moon inside Crater Alphonsus in 1965. Whie viewing this footage, astronaut Wally Schirra allegedly said, "Bail out, you fool!"

NASA's DART mission successfully shoved an asteroid

Quote:
It worked! Humanity has, for the first time, purposely moved a celestial object.

As a test of a potential asteroid-deflection scheme, NASA's DART spacecraft shortened the orbit of asteroid Dimorphos by 32 minutes - a far greater change than astronomers expected.

The Double Asteroid Redirection Test, or DART, rammed into the tiny asteroid at about 22,500 kilometers per hour on September 26. The goal was to move Dimorphos slightly closer to the larger asteroid it orbits, Didymos.

Neither Dimorphos nor Didymos pose any threat to Earth. DART's mission was to help scientists figure out if a similar impact could nudge a potentially hazardous asteroid out of harm's way before it hits our planet.

The experiment was a smashing success. Before the impact, Dimorphos orbited Didymos every 11 hours and 55 minutes. After, the orbit was 11 hours and 23 minutes, NASA announced October 11 in a news briefing.
