NASA Is About to Crash Into an Asteroid. Here's How to Watch.

An asteroid minding its own business not too far from Earth is about to get knocked about by a visitor from our planet. On Monday, NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test spacecraft, or DART, is set to collide with Dimorphos, a small asteroid that is the moon of a larger space rock, Didymos...

NEVER mess with the order of the Universe. Next thing we know, the altered trajectory of the moonlet Dimorphos will result in it and/or its Didymos asteroid shepherd impacting the home planet of a superior race of sentient beings. Their response will be swift & the human race will be punished severely.

Cued up to final approach and impact.

Seven million miles and right on target. Well done NASA!

Next, will they target a Kardashian?

We already ARE being punished, JMCx4.

Webb, Hubble Capture Detailed Views of DART Impact - NASA

Two of NASA’s Great Observatories, the James Webb Space Telescope and the Hubble Space Telescope, have captured views of a unique NASA experiment designed to intentionally smash a spacecraft into a small asteroid in the world’s first-ever in-space test for planetary defense. These observations...

Nasa's Dart spacecraft 'changed path of asteroid'

Smashing a probe into threatening space rocks is a strategy to defend Earth, an experiment confirms.

Confirmed that the impact slowed it down. Cool.

The Didymosians are preparing to sue NASA for endangering their home world.

Newtonian physics. Calculations can happen.
