The James Webb Space Telescope and its older counterpart Hubble photographed the impact of NASAs asteroid-smashing DART probe into the space rock Dimorphos on Monday (Sept. 26).

The James Webb and Hubble telescopes on Thursday revealed their first images of a spacecraft deliberately smashing into an asteroid, as astronomers indicated that the impact looks to have been much greater than expected

Yesterday, humanity achieved a new and amazing first, 11 million kilometers (6.8 million miles) from home.

NASAs Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) has successfully collided with its target asteroid millions of miles away, and here are its final images.
