NASA will launch a mission in November to keep an asteroid it describes as “dangerous” from colliding with Earth by pushing it with a spacecraft.DART), will be heading to the asteroid at 1:20 a.m. EDT on November 24 aboard a rocket SpaceX Falcon 9 From a base in California.
According to the British newspaper, “Daily Mail”, it will crash DART An asteroid known as Didymoon, at approximately 13,500 mph on October 2, 2022.
Also, when you do this you will change the speed Didymoon Just a fraction of a percentage, but it will be enough for NASA to measure its changing orbit, and this will provide valuable input into future asteroid-disbursing missions.
The asteroid is approximately 160 meters (524 feet) wide and orbits a much larger space rock known as Didymos that is about 780 meters (2,559 feet) wide.
وحترب Didymoon relatively far from Earth in 2003, as it came within 3.7 million miles, and is likely to hit Didymoon Earth, because there are more space rocks of their size that NASA and the Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (NEO) have not detected (safflower) Until now.
NASA said in a statement that DART It will be the first demonstration of kinetic impact technology, which involves sending one or more large spacecraft into the path of an asteroid in space to alter its motion.
It is worth noting that NASA considers an object “potentially dangerous” if it is close to Earth within 0.05 AU (4.6 million miles) and has a diameter of more than 460 feet.
