NASA's DART Mission Proves Successful in Altering Asteroid's Course.

Six months after NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft intentionally crashed onto Dimorphos, scientists have gained a clearer view of the asteroid's size, shape, and composition. The final 10 images sent by the Didymos Reconnaissance and Asteroid Camera for Optical Navigation (DRACO) have been used to create a high-resolution mosaic of Dimorphos. Over 259,000 images snapped by DRACO are now available online as part of NASA's Planetary Data System. The mission's success was credited to the collaboration of a huge team, which included scientists from 100 institutes spanning 28 countries worldwide.
