The goal of the NASA mission is to redirect Dimorphos to send it further into Didymos' orbit. It may take up to several weeks for NASA to confirm any changes to the asteroids trajectory, but the goal is to shorten it's nearly 12-hour orbit by several minutes. #nasa #space #asteroid #dart #dartmission #news #update | Mercado Media | Facebook
