US space agency Nasa says its Double Asteroid Redirection Test (Dart) spacecraft has successfully altered the trajectory of the asteroid Dimorphos in the first-ever mission to test the world’s ability to redirect space rocks headed toward Earth. Announcing the results on October 11, 2022, the agency provided details about the larger-than-expected impact of the “planetary defence” test on September 26, when Dart collided with the asteroid.
