In an interview on Oct. 19, NASA administrator Bill Nelson said that project DART (Double Asteroid Redirection Test) will orchestrate collisions between a space probe and an asteroid. “Way out there, we’re going to intercept this asteroid and DART is going to hit it at 15,000 miles an hour --we’re going to see if we can, ever so slightly, move its trajectory….If we discover in the next century that an asteroid is inbound – an asteroid that would blow up the earth or change it, like the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs--DART is the way of avoiding that catastrophe,” Nelson said.
Also liked his comment about Trek -“If you think back to the original Star Trek, that was a very diverse crew…..That was role-modeling way back even before Apollo. Now we’re bringing all that into reality with the Artemis generation,” added Nelson, alluding to NASA’s initiative to put the first woman on the moon, along with the next man, by 2024.
So finally we're getting the obelisk in "The Paradise Syndrome" - !
