The first flight mission for planetary defense, NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) seeks to validate a method to ...

Images that NASA's DART spacecraft captured of an asteroid moments before it intentionally collided with the object in 2022 have now allowed researchers to gain fresh insights into the celestial ...

The deliberate 14,000-mph crash of a small NASA probe into the asteroid Dimorphos two weeks ago nudged the 525-foot-wide body onto a slightly different course, NASA confirmed Tuesday — shaving 32 ...

Last month, NASA did the unthinkable. After first announcing the Direct Asteroid Redirection Test, DART, in 2019, the plan finally came to fruition, and NASA slammed a spacecraft into an asteroid to ...

NASA announced Tuesday that its Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission successfully altered the orbit of an asteroid millions of miles away. Following analysis over the past two weeks since ...

This imagery from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope from Oct. 8, 2022, shows the debris blasted from the surface of Dimorphos 285 hours after the asteroid was intentionally impacted by NASA’s DART ...

NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission had two main goals: to show that an asteroid could be targeted in a high-speed encounter, and to demonstrate that the target's orbit could be ...

NASA's now 32-year-old Hubble Space Telescope has been snapping photographs of the asteroid NASA recently collided its Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft into. The new set of images ...

Rocky debris blasted away from the tiny asteroid Dimorphos when NASA's DART spacecraft intentionally slammed into it in 2022 could create the first human-made meteor shower known as the Dimorphids, ...

Analysis of data obtained over the past two weeks by NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) investigation team shows the spacecraft's kinetic impact with its target asteroid, Dimorphos, ...
