The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission involved slamming a 1,200-pound spacecraft about the size of a vending machine into an asteroid at 13,000 miles per hour.
) In this handout from the National Aeronautical Space Administration , the Hubble Space Telescope drifts through space in a picture taken from the Space Shuttle Discovery during Hubble?s second servicing mission in 1997. NASA annouced OctoberThe first stage occurred about two hours after the collision. An image shows the formation of an ejecta cone, or debris material kicked up from the collision that forms a conical shape.
The second stage occurred about 17 hours after impact, NASA said. An image shows the shape of the ejecta cone being transformed into a spiral swirl due to the gravitational pull of a companion asteroid.
