The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission not only altered an asteroid’s orbit but, for the first time, a new study shows we also successfully changed the asteroids' path around the sun.

Scientists talk about Bennu with calm numbers, but behind them is a kind of fear that turns even small plans into something you hold tighter.

NASA said earlier this month that an asteroid that at one point had a 4% chance of hitting the moon will miss the lunar object in 2032.

In 2022, NASA hit Dimorphos with a spacecraft. But looking back through the data, astronomers believe they have found evidence of an impact event prior to the big test.

NASA’s DART mission changed the Dimorphos' asteroid orbit around the Sun, proving spacecraft impacts could help defend Earth.
