I’m 67 years old and when I was a child I read every science fiction book I could . It’s been amazing to see so many things that were considered science fiction now have become reality. I look forward to more amazing science fiction become reality.
I AM THE BEEST YOUUTUBER YOU'RE ALL TRAASH COMPARED TO ME IM THE BEEST 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
Same. We are living the things we thought wouldn't happen in our life time. Wish the first astronauts could see this . Well, maybe they can. Take care.
Question. What happen to the Asteroid after Impact?????? Was it pulverise, was it change its path, was it split in 2? The video shows impact but no video to see the impact of satellitr to the asteroid to see the result...
@@sealoftheliving4998 they need to do the science to find out, it definitely didn't destroy it. All they were trying to do was to push it in another direction
@@susanfanning9480 I'm 64 years old and have always been a science fiction fan but I now realise it's more fantasy than fiction. We will never leave this planet beyond these interesting scientific experiments.
There's a ton of movies that depict this exact scenario. Pretty cool to see it come to fruition.
And then what happens???? The world wants to know!!!!
sorry but this was just another movie pal, maybe it will actually come to fruition someday
Hope this is real. So use to BS news

This was a test run for Apophis MN4 - due to hit Earth in April of 2029 - known as project "Broken Mirror"
we only have 6.5 yrs left people - no need to make summer plans for 29'....
Did that scientist really say, "You can ask the dinosaurs that?" Dude, everyone knows dinosaurs cant talk, duhhhh....
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sure they can. They even had their own sitcom back in the day.
They can talk; myna birds, parrots, macaws, corvids...
@@gravanon1577 and we all know how THAT ends!
Not only that.. Everyone knows Jesus' dad created the dinosaurs 7000 years ago.
If there was an immediate threat , would the public be notified or would it just be called a test like this was ?
If they were to lie about a test, there’s no need to even notify the public. Amateur astronomers could easily decipher trajectory if NASA were to identify their “test” asteroid.
I’m willing to bet if the government had an confirmed collision, they’d notify the public to try and have as many people shelter as possible. Likely only after exhausting all attempts to change its course.
Yeah I rather they don't do it.
people go would go apeshit and do stuff that they otherwise wouldn't have done.
They would never tell us, and yes it would be called a test🤔
It would leak out because there are so many people in that chain of information. Governments are pretty good, but they're still made of people at the end of the day.
I'm no astrophysicist, but the key to changing the orbit of an object is the mass of the impactor.
How massive a satellite can we send to intercept a threatening asteroid ?
Not if it’s going fast enough
SLS in its current configuration should be capable of launching 27 ton spacecraft into deep space. This is intended to be brought up to 46 tons later.

@@sealoftheliving4998 we'll see in a week or so when they analyze data
@@sealoftheliving4998 It'll change its path, but the amount it'll change isn't understood very precisely (ejecta flying from the impact can cause the momentum change to be a lot larger than you might expect just from the spacecraft mass and velocity).
Dude my first fear is like.... ever seen a tree cut down and you think it's going to fall one way and... it doesn't make the mark?
🤣🤣 Indeed. America's funniest home videos ... here we come !

never , trees ALWAYS, ALWAYS fall EXACTLY where humans direct them(until they don't)!!!
One of the best research projects I've seen in a while.
“It’ll take a week or more for nasa to analyze data to tell if it was successful.”
1 week later: haha it’s heading towards us now 😅
Hope so.
Good news : we finally analize the data.
Bad news : it's heading toward us 😂
love how the actors always do the double high 5
Its all lies for sure
NASA: yeah we move asteroid's path
Asteroid: Where did that come from, heads towards Earth
Actually, sir, we can not ask the dinosaurs😒😂
nice job, since you fix this problem gracefully, could you please came back on earth and fix the inflation?
Glad we actually are looking up!
it would be like a bug hitting the windshield of your car. I always have to hang onto the steering wheel. 😂
plot twist: after rocket impact, asteroid is NOW on a collision course with Earth.....
Maybe
I thought this same thought when i was watching the stream. What if it’s angry and wants to punch us back now?
Poor harmless asteroid. It never did a thing to anyone
Wow...up til now I have been using Preparation H for asteroids. Who knew?
🤣🤣 Your joke deserves more thumbs up ( no pun intended ).

@@sealoftheliving4998 the purpose, from what I've heard, is to purposely crash a multi-million dollar probe to slightly push the asteroid off course. It won't damage the space rock but gives a slight push back.
We're not sure if it changed speed or anything since space is like underwater.
@@sealoftheliving4998 The mission was to push it off orbit and follow its new orbit so that this can be perfected for future possible needs.
OH GOD IT'S COMING RIGHT FOR US NOW

I love reading about the sky, planets and stars and all that great stuff. ❤
How did we receive video feed from 7 million miles away?
Wow, it really bothers me how many idiots there are in the comments of these videos. 2 minutes of research will tell you everything you need to know about the mission.
Just read the comments you were referring to.....your post is 💯.
Yeah...too many stupids.
The biggest threat to us is ourselves ✌🏾

doing this will only offset the harmony and balance of what naturally occurs out there which will have an impact on all of the universe
Question. What happen to the Asteroid after Impact?????? Was it pulverise, was it change its path, was it split in 2? The video shows impact but no video to see the impact of satellitr to the asteroid to see the result.
Tell you the truth, we dont really see the impact.
I pray that thing don't start coming towards this way faster in retaliation 😂
Now it’s coming this way
this is like spitting your lung butter at a freight train and expecting it to deflect its trajectory (assuming trains had a trajectory)
And even if it were to knock it only one centimeter off trajectory by the time it went the 14 million miles from where it is to where Earth is it would miss us by tens of thousands of miles.
Yeah, you probably understand this kind of thing better than them. In the future I’m sure NASA will come ask you to work out their maths for them.
It is actually on its way to earth. They just slightly nudged it to hit Russia
Armageddon , my favorite movie.
Time for Bruce Willis to come out of retirement.

"don't look up"
"You can ask the dinosaurs about that"
I don’t think we have to ask the dinosaurs cause they’re not here💀💀💀
Waiting for the conspiracy theories about taking out a weaponized "Heaven's Gate" base built on the asteroid.
Can use weapon to destroy it?
Just wondering.
It will splinter into more peices, just like a shotgun have more chance hitting you than a 50 bmg
I hope they know how to play pool right and did not clock up this one.
Rest in pieces dart

Talk about a pain in the asteroid!

plot twist ...... That strike has changed it's orbit and is now on a collision course with earth..
:20:00 they almost couldn't successfully collide that double high five though😭
No need for fancy drilling equipment, rock music, 2x space shuttle, future batman actor and a tactical nuke to deflect an asteroid.
We all use the term "awesome" too loosely, but in this case... awesome! 😎
Good job. Smart people. 🤗🤗🤗😎
Hahahahahahahaha smart because they know how to collect tax payers money for nothing !
Congratelatios !!! It is werry seriozuly STEP . ...
So farst so hard to deal with asstoryeds
Asteroid: touch me If you wanna start a fight!
Earth: "touches"
Asteroid: you actually touched me... now I'm gonna touch you.
Why not just call up a hammerhead Corvette 🤷♂️
Bhahaha, nice
Little do we know that we knocked it in course to hit another planet that probably has a life lol
How about something that lands on it, then attaches it self to it, then turns on a booster rocket to change It's projecttory.
It's not a bad idea, but it would take much more energy, money and precision to do that.
Imagine someone throws a rock at you right now and you can't move out of the way. Beside you, you have a drone with a tiny net on one side and a small pile of rocks on the other side.
It takes a lot less time, physical effort and mental calculations to pick up those rocks and try to smack the other rock out of the sky than it is to pilot the drone into the path of the rock and try to catch it with the net.
Both are extremely hard to do, but you stand a bit of a better chance by just throwing stuff at it.
1:24 sure ill go visit my local museum and ask the dinosaurs about it.
That was dumb
Just as Terra Invicta comes out lol
NBC: This is a video showing NASA crash a probe into an asteroid
Mark Zuckerberg: MY SUMMER HOUSE!!!
Wait for chain reaction.😂😂😂
how could you alter its course without a powerful nuke
A small nudge adds up if you start early enough.
Any kinetic impact will have some affect.
Ever play billiards?
Space doesn't have the air resistance of earth, tiny amounts of force have much more effect. It's why vehicles can move so fast in space
nukes dont exist space isnt real. you people are delusional
Now we have Astroid Change issue. 😂😂😂
I hope that the big one won’t bring CO2.
By the same token disrupting anything on space can make a chain effect that can result on sending something towards earth that otherwise would not.

@@sealoftheliving4998 Dude stop spamming everywhere
No, they would have taken everything like this into consideration and planned exactly where they wanted it to go. They have hundreds of incredibly intelligent minds working on this, they wouldn't just slam something into a rock and hope for the best.
Dude if it was that easy for the solar system to spiral into chaos we would not be here.
Soo they don't even know if it worked yet....they're cheering because it crashed into the asteroid. Um ok? Were you not expecting DART to find its target? They don't even know if it was a big enough impact to cause it to veer off its trajectory path. Pretty scary that response time isn't immediately known...
Like everything NASA does, this mission required countless hours of work, whether it was the engineering, flight control or simply the mathematics. So if seeing your spacecraft, that you’ve been working so tirelessly on for months, complete it’s mission doesn’t spark that joy I don’t know what will.
@@girthyyobo1554 No one is discrediting their work, the time and life force invested into building a rocket the size of a fridge to crash into the pyramid of Giza practically. What I am genuinely asking is... the long arduos journey and time it takes to build one, all the resources and funds spent to build one...just to crash into it without knowing immediately whether it was successful or not...is scary. There Is a waiting interval that must occur before they can even gather the data to say whether or not the impact was strong enough for the asteroid to be veered off course. God forbid we need this immediately or our planet will be doomed as a result of not getting vital information promptly.
How do you know you didn’t knock it into earth atmosphere
Because it’s 7 million miles away
So big and vast
There seem to be small rocks on the surface of the asteroid. How can an object only 160 m in diameter have enough gravity to hold small rocks on its surface?
Great thanks for creating more pieces of asteroid to hit us.
There's a reason this asteroids have a orbit path now we knocked it off coursed it going to bounce with the rest
1:00 this man is an alien
No u
I don’t want to close m my eyes
Congrats NASA you really saved earth from a astroid impact
Send a nuke or one of those hypersonic missles. I think this was a test of plotting a collision course like old man winter below said. " LIKE A BUG HITTING A WINDSHIELD"
This is perhaps NASA's most important and least appreciated mission. Deflecting asteroids isn't the stuff of science fiction any more and will likely prove critical to our future survival as a species. My one question though is, will anyone notice? And by anyone, I'm not limiting my self to any specific species.

Bruce Willis called up for Armageddon. Awesome
What happens to the other rock that it was going around ?will it change it’s path ,because there’s nothing there to stablelise it?
It'll go to earth
I think the impact of such a small spacecraft wouldn't be enough for that, but I guess we'll see
Isn't it amazing on how humans have made it this far, 65 years ago the Soviets launched the first ever spacecraft and now we've (NASA) launched the first ever planetary defense.
and in 43 years we'll have the first warp drive.

Did NASA achieved its goal if changing the path? The soacecraft was so small compare to the rock. They hit it but moving the r9ck away from its path is another thing. It's just like a tank hit by a bmx bike
A bmx bike hitting a tank at 14,000 mph
Even 0.1 percent change in velocity can have massive impact in space
this was deffo on course for earth
Space rock still on course for earth

@@sealoftheliving4998 They literally said it would take a week to analyze the data from telescopes to determine if they hit it hard enough to change it's trajectory. I guess 2 minutes was too long to expect someone to pay attention.
Wasn't Gagarin THE first astronaut (or cosmonaut, technically)?
Plot twist: It goes off course and smash into another asteroid which goes off course and crashes into the Earth :o
Successfully re aimed it at earth!
Why does it look like CGI
Past low
earth orbit.
Did it work?
Plume from the impact has been observed by several telescopes on Earth. It will take perhaps a week or two to have enough observations to nail down any change.
I hope a planet killer finally gets us.
I think they just offset the asteroid into a collision course with earth 🌍
People are freaking stupid.
Why can’t we launch missiles and other objects
I have a bunch of $3 dollar bills somewhere in my wallet 🤣🤣🤣
Doesn't look like it made a difference.
The ultimate irony would be if they diverted this harmless asteroid directly into the path of earth… whoops 😅
Uh oh! The butterfly effect..... Everything is going to be moved off track lol.

Maybe shoot something in the right spot that could dissolve part of it and change its trajectory.
That's basically what this test was
Wouldn't it be a beetch if NASA nudged it into a path with Earth?
Don't look up (the good ending)
POV they know it into earths cordinates😢
Now it is coming to earth
