Whether discovering exoplanets or measuring the size of an asteroid, cubesats are affordable throughout the space community, even to small startup, private companies and university laboratories.

The NASA spacecraft hit the roughly 160 meters in diameter Dimorphos, which orbits a larger asteroid — the 780 meter Didymos.

Scientists are eager to examine the impact’s aftermath up close to know exactly how effective Dart was and what changes might ...

it will gather additional data about the aftermath of the DART crash and how it changed the asteroid system. The mission is key to turning DART’s kinetic impact into a technique that could help ...

According to a new paper by scientists at Heriot-Watt University in the U.K., another asteroid impact occurred around the same time (geologically speaking) that Chicxulub caused the planet-wide ...
