NASA's DART mission successfully altered Dimorphos' orbit, but the impact unleashed over 100 boulders, significantly boosting ...

It ultimately was successful, with NASA correctly predicting that it is possible to redirect celestial objects. The asteroid known as Dimorphos was approximately the size of the Great Pyramid of Giza, ...

In 2022, NASA rammed a spacecraft into an asteroid to see if it could alter its orbital period around its parent asteroid. The mission, dubbed the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART), aimed to ...

When NASA's DART mission crashed into the asteroid Dimorphos, the first stage of the impact saw the spacecraft's solar panels ...

There are currently no known asteroids on an impact course with the planet. Still, scientists are keeping a watchful eye on ...

When NASA’s DART spacecraft collided with a small asteroid moon in late 2022, the impact made history. It was the first ...

In the almost three years since NASA proved that it could successfully deflect an asteroid, we’ve learned a lot about these ...

NASA celebrated its Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) as a massive success, a proof of concept for saving humanity in ...

When NASA's DART spacecraft slammed into the asteroid moon Dimorphos in September 2022, it didn't just change the asteroid's ...

From asteroids the size of football stadiums to nuclear war and man-made pandemics, it can seem as if humankind is in ...

NASA's DART mission successfully altered Dimorphos' orbit, but the impact unleashed over 100 boulders, significantly boosting momentum transfer. These ejected rocks, captured by LICIACube, carried ...

NASA's DART spacecraft attempted to deflect an asteroid about the size of the Great Pyramid of Giza. New work tracking the debris has found a few fairly large surprises.
