NASA slammed a spacecraft into an asteroid on September 26, 2023, and its impact demonstrated NASA's capability to redirect the trajectory of an asteroid.

NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART), where it smashed into an asteroid, was a success, and now the space agency has outlined what it achieved.

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has photographed the asteroid that NASA recently collided a spacecraft into, showing twin tails much like a comet.

NASA is about to crash a small spacecraft into an asteroid millions of miles away from Earth, and its test may one day save Earth from doom.

NASA has photographed the target asteroid it will collide into very soon in a demonstration of its DRACO camera that's onboard the doomed spacecraft.

NASA has said that its DART team has confirmed the orbit of the asteroid Dimorphos, locking in the trajectory of the DART spacecraft that's ready for colli.
