An Inexplicable Asteroid Collision

The video discusses NASA's DART mission, which aimed to test planetary defense by crashing into the asteroid Dimorphous. The mission successfully altered the asteroid's orbit, surpassing expectations. Observations from various telescopes, including Hubble and Webb, provided valuable data. Future missions like Hera will further study the impact and improve deflection technologies.
