SpaceX's Falcon 9 first stage booster is set to launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base at 10:20 p.m. today, carrying upon it NASA’s first planetary defense test spacecraft designed to deliberately collide with a small asteroid approximately 6,835,083 miles away from Earth.
If all goes as planned, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test spacecraft will travel at a speed of roughly 15,000 mph and ultimately crash into Dimorphos, a moonlet asteroid which orbits larger twin asteroid Didymos, by the fall of 2022, according to NASA launch officials.
