Like something straight out of a movie script where a meteorite hurtling towards Earth must be stopped, NASA\'s science and technology are conducting tests to deflect an asteroid impact. DART, or Double Asteroid Redirection Test, will be the first spacecraft to land on celestial objects to attempt to deflect their trajectory. Specifically, it will target Didymos, a binary asteroid system. The system is 780 meters wide and has a satellite orbiting it. It is located approximately 11 million kilometers from Earth. The spacecraft will be launched on a Falcon 9 rocket belonging to SpaceX. The launch took place from California. The space agency aims to investigate the kinetic impact of a potential asteroid threat. If the mission goes as the agency anticipates, the spacecraft will travel for almost a year, covering 11 million kilometers. The expedition could achieve its goal of impacting the asteroid Dimorphos. The collision is projected at a speed of 6.6 kilometers per second. For this purpose, a camera called DRACO has been designed, which has independent navigation software. This tool will facilitate the mission\'s impact. "The collision will change the speed of the small moon in its orbit around the main body by a fraction of one percent, which will change its orbital period by several minutes, enough to be observed and measured with telescopes on Earth," NASA explains. The impact zone will be near the countries of Germany, the Czech Republic, and Austria. It will be monitored by telescopes and planetary radars that will closely track the maneuvers. Furthermore, every movement will be recorded audiovisually.
