Within a few hours, NASA will try to launch one of the most interesting missions in memory recently. Around 1:21 ET, Falcon 9 rocket from SpaceX is scheduled to be appointed from the Vandenberg space force base in California carrying a double asteroid diverts (arrow). In about a year, NASA will try to deliberately hit an arrow to the incoming asteroid to see if it can change its direction.
The test will mark the first time human trying to change the asteroid path. The NASA binary system will target as part of the test not to pose a threat to the earth, but what institutions learn from the mission can be vital in the future. NASA has identified at least 23 objects that have the potential to collide with the earth for the next 100 years. And develop a decent defense strategy is the key to protecting humanity from that threat.
You can watch all the launch unfold on the YouTube Live NASA channel. Direct coverage will begin at 12:30 ET on November 24.
