Battle of the Asteroids

NASA will test capability today to nudge a menacing space rock away from Earth.

On Sept. 26, the agency will slam a spacecraft the size of a vending machine into a space rock the size of a great Egyptian pyramid.

The sci-fi-like endeavor is called the DART mission, or Double Asteroid Redirection Test, which launched in November 2021. It's humanity's first-ever attempt to purposefully move an asteroid.
