Sept. 26, it achieved its goal of crashing intoDimorphos, a small asteroid that orbits a second, larger piece of space rock,Didymos, as the pair travels in an elliptical orbit around thesun.

He was talking after NASA launched its first mission to deflect an asteroid. The DART (Double Asteroid Redirection Test) spacecraft, built with the sole purpose of being crashed against "moonlet" Dimorphos, left California in the late hours of the evening to head towards the asteroid a...

“DART will target Dimorphos, the much smaller ‘moonlet’ of a binary (two-body) asteroid system,”Kachele said. “Didymos, the primary body, safely orbits the sun and comes close enough to Earth such that scientists can observe it using ground-based telescopes. The dynamic of the binary...
NASA says DART's target asteroid—the binary, near-Earth system Didymos, comprising 530-foot-diameter Dimorphos and 2,560-foot namesake Didymos—is not a threat to our planet. But it is "a perfect testing ground to see if intentionally crashing a spacecraft into an asteroid is an effective...
launch activities for the agency’s first planetary defense test mission, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART). The mission will help determine if intentionally crashing a spacecraft into an asteroid is an effective way to change its course. DART’s target asteroid is not a ...
