NASA's Deep Impact Mission: Collision with Comet Temple One

The video discusses the Deep Impact mission targeting Comet Temple One. On July 4th, a copper-fortified impactor will be sent to collide with the comet, which is 133 million kilometers from Earth. The mission aims to study the comet's subsurface, revealing materials from the solar system's formation. The impact's outcome is uncertain, with potential crater sizes ranging from a house to a stadium, but it won't alter the comet's path. The collision will eject ice and dust, recorded by onboard cameras and space telescopes like Hubble, Spitzer, and Chandra.
