What Is DART MISSION?
DART is a NASA space mission aimed at testing a method of planetary defense against near-Earth objects (NEOs).
Launched from Earth in November 2021, the mission will deliberately crash a space probe into the minor-planet moon Dimorphos (On 26 September 2022) of the double asteroid Didymos...
to assess the future potential of a spacecraft impact to deflect an asteroid on a collision course with Earth through a transference of momentum.
The asteroid poses no actual threat to Earth; it was merely selected for the test.
DART is a joint project between NASA and APL.
