Difesa planetaria, risultati dell'impatto di Dart. L’impatto di Dart ha creato una grande espulsione di massi che si sono allontanati da Dimorphos a velocità fino a 52 metri al secondo. Grazie alle immagini raccolte in situ da LiciaCube è stato possibile confermare che l’energia cinetica trasferita a Dimorphos dai materiali espulsi a seguito dell’impatto guidato dell’impattatore...

One year ago today the #DARTMission crashed into asteroid Dimorphos. This image was taken by the accompanying #LICIACube spacecraft and shows ejecta streaming out after the impact.

Un piccolo video dedicato alla missione che un paio di settimane fa è andata contro un #asteroide per modificarne l'orbita intorno a un altro asteroide.
Nello spazio con DART c'era anche il piccolo satellite italiano #LiciaCUBE

"Data obtained by NASA’s DART investigation team shows the spacecraft's kinetic impact with its target asteroid, Dimorphos, successfully altered its orbit. This marks humanity’s first time changing the motion of a celestial object and the first demonstration of asteroid deflection technology"

I love the Italian Space Agency working with Nasa on this!

Never mind the low res, what an incredible and valuable animation!

This time, no considerations for the impact geometry 🙃

Die italienische ASI veröffentlicht erst Bilder vom #DART Einschlag in #Dimorphos die ihr Satellit #LICIACube aufgenommen hat

Here is a reconstruction of #DART's impact on minor-planet moon Dimorphos, as observed by the Italian cubesat LICIACube, which is in orbit around near Earth asteroid Didymos.

The reconstruction assumes #LICIAcube's camera was centered on #Dimorphos and so we see #Didymos move with respect to its moon. Without knowing the exact geometry of bodies and camera at the moment of the impact this is just one of many possibilities.

Simplement impressionant!
Han arribat les primeres imatges capturades pel petit satèl·lit italià LICIACube, que feia dies que s'havia desacoblat de la sonda DART i la seguia a distància prudencial. Dimorphos és l'objecte en segon pla.
Bravo magnifico lavoro!

Ecco le prime immagini scattate da #LICIACube dell’impatto di #DARTmission su #Dimorphos.

My little Artificial Unintelligent Agent informs me that #NASA's Deep Space Network (DSN) is communicating with the Italian CubeSat #LICIAcube which is on its way to witness #DART meeting its destiny onto asteroid #Dimorphos, on Mon. Sep 26, 2022 at 23:14:00 UTC (19:14:00 EDT). DSN is also currently communicating with DART.

The clocks are ticking: 3 days separate us from #DARTmission's impact onto the asteroid #Dimorphos, and #LICIACube's cameras are preparing to look at it from very close.

LICIACube is a Light Italian CubeSat for Imaging of Asteroids:

Less than 2 weeks for the #DARTMission fateful arrival to Dimorphos, and the #LICIACube companion has detached.

Here's "Demise nominal", mine from 2020, fingerpainted on tablet with #SketchbookApp.

Borrowed a lot look&feel from #Hayabusa2 at Ryugu, imagining how the impact could bee seen from the cubesat
