Faster than light

A spacecraft the size of a refrigerator going 14,000 mph just smashed into a 550 foot asteroid 6.5 million miles from Earth. A space rock ended the story of the dinosaurs and it's only a matter of time until another one hits us. People have been talking about options for planetary defense for a long time - kinetic impactors, nukes, gravitational tractors - and changing the trajectory of asteroids is no longer science fiction. https://www.wired.com/story/sucess-nasa-dart-clocks-dimorphos-asteroid/amp
