DART truly made a mess last night.

Astronomers watched in awe as binary asteroid Didymos brightened up immediately after the impact of NASA’s DART mission on Monday (Sept. 26).

NASA officials will be discussing the rollback of Artemis 1 Tuesday (Sept. 27) to shelter from Hurricane Ian. The livestream starts at 2 p.m. EDT.

It could probably go without saying, but for the record, the space shuttle mission shown on “Quantum Leap” did not happen. The episode “Atlantis” had Ben Song leap into the body of an astronaut.

NASA is working on a blueprint to guide space exploration and infrastructure for the moon, Mars and to destinations across our solar system.

Cameras aboard the International Space Station are providing a birds-eye view of Hurricane Ian as it churns northward toward Florida.

DART may have completed its journey, but the work is only just starting for scientists as they set about learning how much the asteroid Dimorphos was deflected by its impact.

Telescopes here on Earth captured the DART asteroid probe’s spectacular deep-space death.
