Tonight, the world's first planetary defense test will take place, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test. At 7:14pm ET, DART’s impact will slow Dimorphos down, which will make it orbit Didymos faster. This technique could save Earth one day - the only preventable natural disaster. https://t.co/N5gnDSydu6

While everybody is arguing & fighting over all manner of terrestrial issues, @NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirect Mission (DART) slams a space probe into an asteroid’s moonlet today. Consider it practice, deflecting killer asteroids that might head our way. https://t.co/kfuyZZI76v

Impact! NASA's DART spacecraft has collided with asteroid Didymos, hitting at a velocity of more than 14,000 mph in a historic planetary defense experiment. https://t.co/OtCYO9fJyN https://t.co/rlWiUycLt8

The navigation camera on NASA's DART spacecraft has spotted stadium-sized asteroid Dimorphos, the target for tonight's impact orbiting a bit more than a half-mile from the larger asteroid Didymos. Dimorphos is at the 2 o'clock position in this view. https://t.co/OtCYO9fJyN https://t.co/QM6lyS7dnB
