[ad_1] NASA is all set to crash DART Mission spacecraft into an asteroid on Monday. Here is when and where you can watch it LIVE. What is the best way to stop an asteroid from reaching or crashing into Earth? The answer is to destroy the asteroid in space itself. NASA's scientists and researchers will be testing the same on Monday, September 26 under its Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) Mission. And in some very good news, it has been revealed that NASA DART mission asteroid crash live stream will be available to all! With the help of the mission the research organisation will try to find out if we are able to defend and protect our planet against asteroids or comets that head towards it at high speed. The DART spacecr...

Wow! James Webb, Hubble telescopes to snap NASA’s 500kg DART craft crashing into asteroid

[ad_1] NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) will crash a 500kg craft into an asteroid; James Webb, Hubble to capture it. NASA is all set to make an attempt to deflect an asteroid via the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) on September 26. The process would involve crashing a 500kg spacecraft into binary asteroid 65803 Didymos' moonlet Dimorphous to change its trajectory. And the historic moment will be captured by James Webb Space Telescope and Hubble Space Telescope. The powerful telescopes that are already exploring the space will capture this live view of the moment of impact as NASA will turn them towards the DART impact that will take place at 7:14 p.m. EDT (2314 GMT). As per the report, DART will arrive...
