- Nasa has successfully crashed its Dart spacecraft into an asteroid.
The American space agency was testing whether space rocks that might threaten Earth could be nudged out of the way. This is the first experiment of its kind by Nasa.
The asteroid hit was not headed for the Earth, however scientist Dr Elena Adams said "earthlings should sleep better" knowing they had a planetary defence solution.

Unbelievable to see this in our lifetimes. Watching the asteroid get closer frame by frame was so cool. Me and my 6 year old loved watching this.
This is nothing Comparing to what people will live like in about 500 Years ? the way Knowledge Technology has rapidly increased In the Passrf 100 Years what we are in for the next 500 Years tells its story all most. YET WITH NUCLEAR WAR HEADS ? These can Destroy the earth over 15 times. We could rid of it but out of fear it would be impossible. Russia Has as many Nuclear Missals or even More than America never mention all others. Things need to change with these top leaders elites Wealth trying to be Gods over civilization standing for a future . 1 Big Problem is when a person only reaches a certain age as very Educated skilled and power over millions becomes to realizes he is going to die soon beliving may be he might go to hell? What kind of Kaoss do you think this person will cause when it has its hands on that big red butten? How would the other normal one in control Stop it? well soo to speak but very Possible. Teach your children Wisely.
I told my kid this was live footage of a vast asteroid slamming into earth during night, the camera positioned on an observation vehicle in a desolate area of the Caucasian mountains where it had been calculated to hit. "I'll see you on the other side son".
Asteroid's path altered in NASA's first test of planetary defense system
By Steve Gorman October 11, 2022 7:22 PM EDT
"DART's celestial target was an egg-shaped asteroid named Dimorphos, roughly the size of a football stadium, that was orbiting a parent asteroid about five times bigger called Didymos once every 11 hours, 55 minutes.
The test flight concluded with the DART impactor vehicle, no bigger than a refrigerator, slamming directly into Dimorphos at about 14,000 miles per hour (22,531 kph).
Comparison of pre- and post-impact measurements of the Dimorphos-Didymos pair as one eclipses the other shows the orbital period was shortened to 11 hours, 23 minutes, with the smaller object bumped tens of meters closer to its parent."
So a 32 min change when the predictions were 10 minutes and a 73 second change would have been considered a success.
What you on about? Esa already did this like a decade ago or so.

@@workonesabs how could the bugs do it tho?
They just about had orbital defences.
There is no way in hell that the bugs were able to launch the rock onto earth from their home planet, it was light years away!!
Wake up!
It was used to justify a militarized society and high defence spending.
Buenos Aires was an inside job!
Or to manipulate it to hit any given target on are planet say an enemy state
Am guessing aliens would probably swat the asteroids like flies, if they even exist out there.
Congrats to the NASA for this successful mission! 👏👏👏
there must be one on the way
Shill
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.
Don't forget how many times you humiliate yourselves by not being able to send a rocket that you were hyping for years to the moon just to get delayed more than 2-3 times LMAOO why don't you let Space-X do the job for you?
Dissapointing
Does that make any logical sense? They allegedly went past the van allen radiation belts, flew to the moon, orbited it, landed, re launched and flew back through the belts into earths atmosphere in 1969 when the first ever manned space flight allegedly took place in 1961! The sh!t is fake thats why its so 'amazing' at this rate we should have been zipping to the moon and back like star wars but nope nobody wants to go back to the moon every nation on earth for the last 40+ years is just like 'nah no point'. The footage of the asteroid crash is clearly not real there aint even stars in the background
American missiles hit an asteroid seven million miles away, orbiting another asteroid and both moving at some incredible speed. Russian missiles hit a shopping center, a theater and a tire fitting depot.
Dont worry, American missiles are hitting plenty of civilian targets too.
What Russia is doing now America has been doing for many decades. America killed a hundred times more innocent civilians than Russia, in the Middle East, in Iraq, Libia, Afghanistan, Syria Pakistan and so on. It's nothing new for America to kill people. America did more horrendous genocide than any country in the world. In the 21 century, in the last 22 years, America killed more than 1 million civilian innocent people in the Middle East and Asia combined according to many reports.

What I find really intriguing is the shape of the asteroid and how it is compacted into its globe shape, with all the miscellany rocks and the dirt "mortar" between the various rocks, and as such a real life model of the theory of planet formation via gravity.
Also, the precision of the dead center targeting with its range and speed is breath taking.
I’d have thought they’d have wanted to be a little off centre to change a trajectory
@@nicholasmassey6941 It slows its orbit down by a tiny amount.
@@nicholasmassey6941 Woodnnnt it make it spun?
@@nicholasmassey6941 Nahh, as center-mass as they could, as diametrical to its own path as possible. To slow it down and thus see its orbit contract.
Off-center could have "wasted" parts of the impact energy into making it spin around its own axis, which is much harder to gauge by distance observation than an orbital contraction and speedup.
@@Diponty If it strikes off centre enough, yes, but if it strikes reasonably close to the centre it will slow it down more than affecting it's rotation. This important detail will be determined by observations over the next few weeks. How much change was there? We want to know to design future tests and eventually future deflection missions for asteroids that present a threat. There are a few asteroids out there that will need to be deflected sometime in the next hundred years or so. They might present a threat in ten years or so, they might take longer than that, but we need to be ready to deflect them or a large percentage of all life on Earth could be wiped out by an impact.
This was the most important space mission ever, and we need to run more tests of this kind to refine the mathematical and technological resources required for an accurate asteroid deflection. One day we will _need_ such a mission to work.
If this NASA mission is successful, it would mean that humans possess the technology to alter our destiny and would represent a major milestone in human evolution
Depends, the sun blocks a lot of stuff, so anything head on that popped up out for the blue would need one hell of a Speed and explosion to do anything
@@nicholasmassey6941 I know one thing the sun doesn't block. Sunlight.
@@Diponty not sure what you’re trying to say exactly, but the sun itself hides things for a certain distance. You can’t see through the sun.
If the sun will not block our vision of an incoming asteroid that is, those are the dangerous ones.
A good start for a major milestone for humankind will be when we stop killing each other for gas and oil,then maybe we can start looking at altering our density.

true
think about it, maybe the reason they did the test recently is because there is a massive asteroid heading towards earth that we, civilian, didnt know about. anyway, this is a great news to hear
Actually there is....but the news was given to the only one they trust
Including Astrologist, scientist, Astronomers, and genius mathematic analystics and many more
If you haven't noticed why Elon Musk kept pushing for more durable, efficient, and livable spacecraft is because of the asteroid
There are asteroid that strays out from the rings of Saturn itself as we all know saturn is the reason why some of the asteroids havent made an impact on earth yet is because of the large mass of saturn and it rings that have kept us alive for hundreds of years.
Elon Musk and NASA have already spotted a large asteroid orbitting around our solar system and Elon Musk and NASA will do anytning to keep humanity alive and preserved for the future of humanity and it is the reason why Elon Musk is so attracted in settling humans on Mars
4 nuclear space missiles are being developed right now designed to knock out the large asteroid on the way its course for Earth however the chances of survivng this is pretty slim and they know full well about it but we will take all the chances we can get and pray for luck on our side
Thats all have a good day sir/ma'am
You'd expect their budget to be greater if that was the case. Instead, DART mission scope and objectives were greatly scaled down before the mission finally took off.

This is really such a great accomplishment. You would think it would have been all over the internet and news and this is first I hear about it.
This is awesome. Means we can/might change the trajectory of an object reaching earth. (We don't need a super-shuttle and nuclear explosion lol).
Actually depending in the size of an asteroid we might need a super shuttle and nukes...lots and lots of nukes.
Well, it is like the movie Don't Look up! It all depends when you detect the asteroid and how large will be. Let's hope so, we will have a lot of time and when it will happen , will be in the far far future (better technology) 😊😊

Ooops, now lets just hope that the Dart spacecraft hasn't accidentally knocked the Dimorphos asteroid orbit in our direction - Doh! 🙂🤣
The target asteroid is orbiting a much bigger asteroid. It's pretty much impossible to change the trajectory of the big asteroid significantly with this experiment.
I think Emily's been getting this line of questioning/jokes a lot. She mentioned twice that it does not endanger Earth, both on original trajectory and post-impact. 🤣
It's pretty fun if they make the smaller asteroid crash into the bigger one. But at that speed and mass best it could do it alter the orbit by a few minutes

Just a yes or no question for you
.. can this exact footage be created by cgi?
The asteroid that ended the dinosaurs was technically the highest ratio of killing birds to one stone on Earth's history.
I find the visuals hilarious
Hello Sarah. How are you doing !?
it's comforting to know that this technology which was the equivalent of hitting a baseball with a BB from millions of miles away could work. Hopefully we will never need to deflect an asteroid, but now we could if we need too. Now we need to continue hunting and tracking all the thousands more asteroids that could pose a danger to life on Earth.
Well, w the right video editing and CGI, hitting a baseball with a bb from millions of miles away is also possible
And I am sure when someone does it, that video will be filled w comments like:
"wow, we are so advanced.... amazing, incredible!"
Based on the objective, proactive steps are a good thing. On the opposing side are we going to have negative long term effects to us or to others for the crash. But I know we have to try to do our best to be proactive in preventing any possible major threats/disasters.
The asteroid that was hit was Dimorphos, which orbits around the asteroid Didymos. Both asteroids orbit the Sun and are more than 3,000,000 miles away when they are closest to Earth. The Moon is 240,000 miles away for reference. The impactor from DART will slightly change the orbit of Dimorphos as it orbits Didymos. The predicted change is so small, 0.4 millimeters per second (roughly 1/63 an inch per second), that it will take weeks to determine how much it changed. Didymos orbit around the Sun won't really be affected at all. This was a small scale test to see if the simulations of an impact match the real world test.
LICIACube cam on the ship cant be the pics showing, the frame rate of 7 fps and focal length set at 70mm the distance and speed of the Collison of min10 miles a second so how are the pics still in focus from 10 miles away to impact in 1 second. never mind two items on differant trajectory traveling 10s of thousands of miles a hour and don't seam to be moving in the frame
In movies they discover something like that and in less than 1 month they've a full team and hardware assembled. I wonder what it's like in real life - and if Bruce Willis will lead a motley collection of crew?
Because it would be boring if no "Dramatic effect". Armageddon is a Sci Fi movie not a documentary.

Not sure anyone can still figure out gravity. It’s probably obvious though that an asteroid has much less, but gravity on an asteroid makes the meaning of gravity seem even more mysterious.

Everyone who studies physics knows how the inelastic collision between two bodies works, the amount of movement depends on the masses and velocity and when a small mass hits a large mass, the scattering of the large mass is negligible; Then.....
you left out that the velocity is squared, and this was a very high velocity impact, there was a considerable amount of momentum to be transferred, also the target was in a low g orbit around another object, therefor had a low orbital velocity, so even a tiny change to its velocity will alter its orbital path in meaningful ways, that's why this target was chosen
Velocity is squared, and DART hit the asteroid with a high velocity impact
I think the Earth needs saving from humans not large rocks, just a thought
I think human beings are capable of so much greatness. We are called to exploration and to Voyage on the ocean and in the stars. Pretty powerful connection we have to everything. Look up at the stars at night. And think to yourself that the Earth is spinning in the middle of this Cosmic Black. And how small that makes you feel. That's the awesomeness of the cosmos.

It's really hard trying to pee in a commercial airliner at 36,000 ft at over 500 miles an hour but they can do this and land on a rock🤔😳
Thank you
Simpsons anyone?

Mrs Emilie Choi changed my life . I was able to pay off my mortgage. I've made over $200,000 from his platform since this pandemic started...
Same for me, her trading income is mind blowing, I also trade with her. I've made $62,000 so far trading with her guidance/advice
Trading with an expert trader is the best strategy for newbies and busy investors who have little or no time to monitor trades.
OH please, is there anyway I can speak to Mrs Emilie Choi , this sounds so helpful and would love to join the train and start my trading with her 🙏
Incredible navigation
Heh, can you imagine . . . Everyone is sitting on the press and there is complete silence. Then someone asks: So what? Did It work? And one of the scientists will answer: We don't know. We missed.
This is interesting and seems cool and everything. What if they diverted that asteroid to another planet that has intelligent life or caused some sort of chain reaction with bad effects. Or got the attention of aliens way out there, just saying lol.
Well hopefully they are millenial years older than us and know what to do ... I mean total annihilation ir worrying about effecting "unknown aliens' .. that we have no evidence exists... well tough choice .. really 🙃
This sounds like the beginning of a summer blockbuster
@@Artnotforthesakeofart 🤣🤣🤣
@@Artnotforthesakeofart LOL, yeah that was the teaser trailer. I can't say more as I might be threatened or harmed.
Do let me know which "planets that have intelligent life" exist here in out solar system, Kyle. Because besides Earth, there's none. And the nearest other star system is 4,2 LY away, which would take Dimorphos thousands of years to reach, if not millions. Not to mention, Dimorphos can't "escape" the solar system because it is itself a moon of Didymos, and it hasn't got enough velocity to escape Didymos' orbit
NASA fantastic 😊
Hello 👋. How are you doing??
Few previous missions or insane experiments like fueling clouds with electric shocks and salts for rainfall were insane. So, we don't know if it is devastated as well in the long run and if it is then how much?
@Shawn M. Conley The taxpayer. NASA sucks in trillions of dollars to show fanatical fans cgi footage and animations. People wont even accept that this footage can easily be created via cgi..
Now that asteroid will hit another of course and cause a chain reaction that just doomed us all. Butterfly effect.
Bollocks, it looks like you zoomed in on a grain of cement. And why did the rest of the universe not turn up.
Did you like your own comment?
@@JohnHazenhousen No I did not. Can you prove me wrong on the first part of my comment and answer the question in the second part.
@@gutwadcarvis If you’re travelling towards an object and taking photos of it at regular intervals, then those photos are going to look like zoomed in versions of the original. And if the object you’re moving towards is a pile of rocks, then it’s going to look like a pile of rocks. That doesn’t mean anything.
And I don’t understand the question in the second part.
@@JohnHazenhousen So the first part of your answer is moot and you can't prove me wrong and the fact you did not understand I was eluding the fact no stars or constellations or galaxies were in the background means you and I should stop now. Thanks for your reply though.
@@gutwadcarvis What do you mean ‘prove you wrong’? Your point was apparently ‘this looks like that’; and my response was ‘well, yes, it _would_ look like that, wouldn’t it?’
What were you expecting it to look like?
And why would you expect to see stars or galaxies in the background?
it was no threat now that they changed its trajectory the next time it comes back it might be a threat thanks nasa
Don't be stupid
What?????
Perhaps the threat was the trajectory it was already on, my comment is only as silly as yours
Okay clown 🤡
*sigh* no
and what's going to happen to the dibrus from the sattilite as that will be making its way back from the collision
Congratulations to you
