But the camera will, of course, cease operations when it slams into Dimorphos at a speed of 4.1 miles per second . But the Rome-based Virtual Telescope Project hopes to livestream the immediate aftermath of the DART impact in real-time with ground-based telescopes.
Because the Virtual Telescope Project's own telescopes aren't ideally positioned to view the impact, the organization has partnered with two South African observatories: Klein Karoo Observatory, operated by amateur astronomer Berto Monard, and the Mahikeng Astronomical Observatory of the North West University. ; you can also watch in the window above courtesy of the project.
now this is news
People will believe anything ☺️
🙄😔😖Van a provocar caos. El material desintegrado llegará a la tierra de alguna forma. Predicción.
NASAWILLKILLUS There's a very good chance they will knock the asteroid they are aiming at into a direct path to earth. I quess they will get to test it real time then.
Seems like begging for trouble to me! Leave well enough alone! Why don’t we have a say? Why do they just get to experiment on anything whenever whoever whatever they want? We have rules do they
Oh sure trust the science, like the past two years. Um
NOT AN ASTEROID!!!!!!!!!!

Wouldn't that be some sh!t if it actually redirected the asteroid on a collision course with Earth? Hope they have a backup plan...
مهسا_امینی
in vastness of space......r u sure 1:1 collision possible?
Vanilla blah colonialism long past due for a change

Trying to explore the nature by messing around with nature 🤔
will you be blowing my guts up so the whole world can watch me beg for mercy while i writhe in pain again? do you do that shit to my real mom shes weaker than yall too
Hope the airbags deploy
Will we mention why or is it still too soon to talk about 2029? (cheeky grin)
And then it’s the 5th element we need to destroy that asteroid.

Does ASTRON knows asteroids are nuclear bombs? Do hurt ONE, and this ONE takes her ANDROMEADA SQUAD RATATATA EARTH and its ants☄️☄️☄️karma is at work now no one can escape this cataclysma meatboxes has created for them selves🔥🔥🍄
They should carry dynamite and an explosive control connected to the dynamite as many as possible. A spacecraft contain the dynamite should reach the asteroid as soon as possible. they drill a lot of holes on the asteroid, insert all the dynamite into the holes and press a button
Crash instead of attaching a probe? Makes no sense.
Curious to hear about the outcome
Our tax dollars hard at work! SMH
Isn't this how all extinction movies begin by doing something we shouldn't, lol
Why didn’t you strap a mini nuke to the probe?

Dr. Mallory DeCoster from JHUAPL was on the show talking about this NASA mission, it technology and how it can be used for the future. DARTMission Listen:
A spaceship wouldn't be enough to destroy an asteroid. Some are metallic so that makes the problem of getting rid of them much more difficult.

It might go wrong
Great this will be so interesting to see what happens and if indeed we will be able to deflect from the path of Earth any threatening space rocks/ Asteroids.
this is so exciting to be able to witness, whether successful or not the info we'll gather on defending our planet from potentially catastrophic asteroid impacts will be so important
birdwriter7 Why ? Why do we break , destroy anything? Could we not build, grow or enhance ?
With all the new technology (and telescopes) will will be able to watch the moon missions from our houses?
Whoa. This is so cool. Where's Bruce? nemots
For what purpose?
good

Is that why the lafd is at Hollywood studios this weekend so nasa can fake this and lafd is on standby
In case NASA needs targeting help...
Do I have to watch it online through a telescope? If so, I'm gonna need someone to be at the other end to scroll and type and stuff.
its realy sad that we have to crash things into asteroids.
🫣
Espero que tras el impacto no lo desvíen hacia la tierra. 😂😄
Why would they do that
