After Hera speeds past Mars, it's onward to Didymos and its now -misshapen companion Dimorphos (thanks to the collision), ...
SabreSat benefits from expertise in Redwire’s European arm. The former QinetiQ Space, acquired by Redwire in 2022, is working with Thales Alenia Space on SkimSat, a VLEO platform for Earth-observation ...
NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) impacted the 'moonlet' Dimorphos in the Didymos asteroid system. Watch the ...
The shape of the asteroid Dimorphos was changed when NASA's DART spacecraft deliberately crashed into it in 2022 as part of a test of humanity's planetary defense capabilities. DART, the Double ...
A small jet engine compact enough to fit on a tabletop is helping to make the future of aviation more sustainable.
The DART mission was designed to test how slamming a spacecraft into the side of an asteroid would impact how it travels through space, and therefore if doing so could successfully deflect a space ...
ESA's Hera asteroid mission for planetary defense will make a swingby of Mars next March, borrowing speed to help reach its ...
In 2022, the DART spacecraft successfully plunged into a space rock dubbed Dimorphos. The test showed that it is possible to redirect an asteroid, potentially saving Earth from a future cataclysm ...
During the DART mission, NASA used an uncrewed spacecraft to slam into Dimorphos at 14,000 miles per hour to see if it was possible to push a space rock off its orbit. READ MORE: NASA's DART ...
NASA’s experimental laser communication system, riding along with the Psyche spacecraft, has hit another milestone. The system was recently used to transmit Psyche data from over 140 million ...
