The Dynamical State of the Didymos System Before and After the DART Impact

Derek C. Richardson, Harrison F. Agrusa, Brent Barbee +50

NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted Dimorphos, the natural satellite of (65803) Didymos, on 2022 September 26, as a first successful test of kinetic…

Ejecta from the DART-produced active asteroid Dimorphos

Jian-Yang Li, Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Tony L. Farnham +61

Some active asteroids have been proposed to be the result of impact events. Because active asteroids are generally discovered serendipitously only after their tail formation, the p…

After DART: Using the first full-scale test of a kinetic impactor to inform a future planetary defense mission

Thomas S. Statler, Sabina D. Raducan, Olivier S. Barnouin +38

NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) is the first full-scale test of an asteroid deflection technology. Results from the hypervelocity kinetic impact and Earth-based obse…
