Are we really crashing a spacecraft into an asteroid? We sure are — all in the name of planetary defense. The DARTMission is a technology test to see if an impactor could change the trajectory of an asteroid. JHUAPL's Nancy Chabot tells us more:

.

’s Efforts to Identify Near-Earth Objects and Mitigate Hazards.”The PDCO sponsors studies of technologies and techniques for deflecting an asteroid off a predicted impact course with Earth. It is developing missions to demonstrate those technologies and determine their effectiveness in the event that these techniques must be utilized against a predicted asteroid impact threat.

is the first-ever mission dedicated to investigating and demonstrating one method of asteroid deflection by changing an asteroid’s motion in space through kinetic impact. This method will have will impact Dimorphos to change its orbit within the binary system, and the

JHUAPL Umm MoonXI

JHUAPL Then, we go for it before it comes for us

JHUAPL I am wondering how is this any different than when you started with deep impact?

JHUAPL Thank you SolarSystem team for doing this. Space is the future. 🙏🏼🛰

JHUAPL Why not land a thruster or booster rocket on the asteroid, fire it up, and gradually push it to change its trajectory. At least it'll stay whole.

jackrauber JHUAPL Nasa why hit the asteroids? Rather map their trajectory n predict… resources for better mission..

JHUAPL Nasa the master of made up 'Stories'

JHUAPL I really think they are doing very well at protecting earth, or at least their very best...

JHUAPL Just send Ace & Gary.

Kennedy JHUAPL Indeed, what if we did find one? I'm glad someone is asking that one.

JHUAPL What if your test actually puts it on a future collision with Earth? What if you put it on a collision course with an object that will then collide with Earth? There's a cascading effect. Seems pretty reckless to disrupt an object's orbit if it doesn't currently pose a threat 🤔

JHUAPL How are you sure that it will work and how are you sure that it will not make things worse . Being that the asteroid is the size of a piramid .

JHUAPL The end of humankind is overdue. Just do it space. End it all. Tired of waiting.

JHUAPL sure

JHUAPL I will be very cross if I give up my diesel car and then find an unstoppable asteroid is on its way.

JHUAPL All my experience happens to be total failure but i never gave up because i knew it was going to work out for me someday, fortunately am smiling today by getting involved with a manager I came across on a Tweet lisamiaBTC all I can say is she is the best of all.

JHUAPL Question: Is the number of identified asteroids of all types headed toward our solar system increasing or decreasing on a decade or century level?

JHUAPL Interesting... nation_orville SgcGate

JHUAPL Cant wait to see what the outcome will detail!

JHUAPL It's not a cool NASA mission, sorry. You leave space junk behind 7 Mio km away,just for getting the data,afterwards you use bombs for better data,without ending.None of us has the right to attack other objects in space, just for looking if... I want you to think it over till 2022

JHUAPL DART mission is an extensive defense mechanism to safeguard from intercepting cosmic matter.

JHUAPL Hey...Good Morning and JHUAPL Hope your day is starting off well. Your doing a great job. Keep up the good work. Have a nice rest of the week and a Happy Thanksgiving🦃 with family and friends. ✌️🤓 NASA DartMission

JHUAPL Y'all can't even get to space without billionaires help Lmao

JHUAPL But have you spoken to Dr Ronald Quincy from Research?

JHUAPL you'll know how to tackle it...else why would you look for a threat unless you know you know how to handle it🙄

JHUAPL Go ahead and hit it. And then the asteroid's course changes and it flies towards Earth 😂

JHUAPL Isn't it like a fly against a train?

JHUAPL Why do you care? You think you can stop what's meant to happen. Just chill ba brother. Do other things. The money you invest in that should be used for other important things. Wars, hunger, poverty, and you think it's the asteroid that will destroy earth or human kind.

ESA_Tech JHUAPL But what if you change its trajectory and it hits the earth?

JHUAPL Asteroids do not exist. The earth is covered by solid dome firmament. Surrounded by water. Hence the blue sky.

JHUAPL Why mess with nature if it’s not a threat why make it one

JHUAPL And there are kids who can’t get a drink of clean water. Time to rethink some priorities, I’d say.

JHUAPL The key to that will be in the mass of what we hit it with. It costs $10,000 /lb to put anything into space.

JHUAPL No NO!!! An impact object or a missile weapon not suitable for 'deviating' asteroids; Got a fast project for a orbiting structure, to double as Planetary Climate control and to protect the Planet from asteroids and the likes of it! We have the Tech to do it Now!

JHUAPL I wanna work as a scientist in NASA when I grow up, from India , Drishaant

JHUAPL ‼️

JHUAPL lol

JHUAPL What is this doing for The Climate ! Not a lot !

JHUAPL We will see if Startrek was right. Exciting.

JHUAPL It’s my dream to be a data scientist at NASA. Nothing is impossible

JHUAPL Super Interesting! Hope it's successful!

JHUAPL Your going to piss off fod and he’s going to go out and get one of those huge exoplanets and just fling it at us at top speed. “What ya gonna do now” after he throws it

JHUAPL Hey guys, this is my new Twitter page. I'm planning on using it to share important information about ETs, the universe & more. Please follow/check out my page. Thanks :)

JHUAPL That's just plain smart, not even going to lie.

JHUAPL Wanna know about reality of the world and secret societies visit

JHUAPL Ummm...couldn't there be some unintended consequences if this works? What if changing the trajectory results in a return that takes out our moon or something like that?

JHUAPL 👍🚀😇🤗

JHUAPL wow and ISS, watch out for the space junk from Russia

JHUAPL Why am I excited for this...

JHUAPL Can't even get the votes counted in a election how the hell you gonna crash into a astroid?

JHUAPL Hope it doesn't change it's trajectory towards earth.. Leave it alone!

JHUAPL Will it work. No

JHUAPL Great like the time it was a good idea to dump copper pins into orbit. Maybe ask the folks on earth first.

JHUAPL 1) If you’re going to hit the astroid, why not just destroy it? 2) what are the potential adverse impacts of knocking it off its orbital path?

JHUAPL Um..what if the trajectory is realigned by this experiment STRAIGHT TO EARTH.

JHUAPL Send some trees , water n biscuit too....bang bang is how life started. IdeasWithPurpose
