The epicness of DART's asteroid impact continues as ESA will send a follow-up mission to observe the Didymos pair.

DART deliberately slammed with the asteroid Dimorphos, which is around 9.6 million kilometres from Earth, at a speed of 22,500 km/h.

On Monday, NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft struck Dimorphos, a small asteroid circling a larger one, Didymos, 7 million miles away.“We’ve been working on this for years, and to see it really come to fruition and to have it be so phenomenally on track with our predictions was absolutely fantastic,” said Cristina Thomas, a planetary scientist at
