NASAs spacecraft DART created a massive trail of dust and debris when it struck the asteroid Dimorphos in 2022. New research from Italian astronomers says these rocks could hit Mars.

NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission that broke a distant asteroid may eventually cause craters on the surface of Mars.

Cargo ships, like the one that caused the Baltimore bridge to collapse, are getting dangerously big

Asteroid 2021 CF6 will pass the Earth on March 25 in time for the Shushan Purim holiday. It's the size of 89 wolverines – the animal, not the superhero or the University of Michigan team (go blue!)

Beware the Ides of March: Asteroid 2024 EK3, around the size of three and a half adult female American bison (aka buffalo), will pass close to the Earth on the day Julius Caesar was killed.

(CNN) — When NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test spacecraft intentionally slammed into the asteroid Dimorphos in September 2022, the impact may have caused “global deformation” of the space rock, according

NASAs DART spacecraft seems to have completely reshaped asteroid Dimorphos after violently crashing into it in Sept. 2022

Rather than leaving an impact crater, NASA’s DART spacecraft reshaped the asteroid after intentionally crashing into it in September 2022, new research suggests.
