NASA’s DART spacecraft successfully slammed into a distant asteroid at hypersonic speed on Monday in the world’s first test of a planetary defense system, designed to prevent a potential doomsday meteorite collision with Earth. Humanity’s first attempt to alter the motion of an asteroid or any celestial body played out in a NASA webcast from […]

After 31 breathtaking years of space exploration with the Hubble Telescope, a new sheriff is in orbit. NASA’s latest addition to its space tech arsenal and the successor to its previous flagship product, James Webb Space Telescope, is over 100 times more potent than its predecessor. The James Webb Space Telescope let’s call JWST, or […]
NASA launched a spacecraft Tuesday night on a mission to smash into an asteroid and test whether it would be possible to knock a speeding space rock off course if one were to threaten Earth. The DART spacecraft, short for Double Asteroid Redirection Test, lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base atop a SpaceX Falcon […]
