We use a novel approach to model the entire cratering process resulting from impacts on small, weak asteroids that uses shock physics code calculations directly. We found that …
The Hayabusa2 mission impact experiment on asteroid Ryugu created an unexpectedly large crater. The associated regime of low-gravity, low-strength cratering remained largely …
Abstract NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission is the first full-scale planetary defense mission. The target is the binary asteroid (65803) Didymos, in which the …
Abstract On 26 September 2022, NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission successfully impacted Dimorphos, the natural satellite of the binary near-Earth asteroid …
NASA's DART spacecraft is planned to reach and impact asteroid Dimorphos, the small moon of binary asteroid (65803) Didymos, at a velocity of 6 km s− 1 in late 2022 September …

We modeled the geometry and the three-dimensional orientation of the ejecta cone triggered by the impact of the DART spacecraft on the asteroid Dimorphos. We used eight …
Context. NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission will kinetically impact Dimorphos, the secondary component of the Didymos binary asteroid system, which will …
