Developed by a team of scientists from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory and NASA’s Planetary Defense Coordination Office, DART is an unmanned, remotely controlled astronomical suicide mission designed to nudge an asteroid that is half a mile in diameter out of its orbit. Doomsayers take note: This is only a test. The asteroid in question, Didymos — Greek for “twin,” and so named because it was discovered to be paired with its own small moon — is not actually on a collision course with Earth... yet.... Its pretty hard to accurately quantify the risks... when you have little idea what might happen to modify orbits when, every once in a while, one rock bumps into another... We don't even have a sufficient ability to monitor the known risks, at this point... much less the unknowns... or the unknown unknown of one (known or unknown) rock bumping another (known or unknown).... and changing its trajectory... Getting a better view from the other side of the sun... to eliminate the blind spot... seems like it would be a pretty high value requirement in developing an ability to provide early warning... much less a defensive capability... No doubt, though, as awareness grows... can count on government to come up with some massive spending plan to foster "duck and cover" education as a part of civil defense plans ?
