The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) was a NASA space mission aimed at testing a method of planetary defense against near-Earth objects (NEOs). [4] [5] It was designed to assess how much a spacecraft impact deflects an asteroid through its transfer of momentum when hitting the asteroid head-on. [6]
A review of the program's initial episode in The New York Times described it as "a spirited and intelligent quiz show". [4] Reviewer Jack Gould commended host Brown and the members of the panel: Millicent Fenwick of Vogue magazine, publisher Bennett Cerf, book critic Lewis Gannett, and 11-year-old Lind Nissen.
DART, or Demonstration for Autonomous Rendezvous Technology, was a NASA spacecraft with the goal to develop and demonstrate an automated navigation and rendezvous capability. At the time of the DART mission, only the Roscosmos and JAXA had autonomous spacecraft navigation.
Ever since we learned that an asteroid sucker punched the dinosaurs 66 million years ago, we’ve been a little bit worried it might happen again, but with us in the crosshairs. Countless movies ...
The pioneering NASA spacecraft has made make science fiction a reality - or at least that’s the theory.

The DART impact on the center of Dimorphos decreased the orbital period, previously 11.92 hours, by 33±1 minutes. This large change indicates the recoil from material excavated from the asteroid and ejected into space by the impact (known as ejecta) contributed significant momentum change to the asteroid, beyond that of the DART spacecraft itself.
Dog Eat Dog is an American game show, which originally ran from June 17, 2002, to August 26, 2003. It was based on the British version of the show by the same name. It was hosted by Brooke Burns, and had contestants compete against each other in physical competitions, trivia, and other assorted games for a prize of $25,000.
