great experiment to save the earth

Dart will continue to orbit in space until September next year and then hit its target six million miles away from Earth.

Dart will continue to orbit in space until September next year and then hit its target six million miles away from Earth. If this happens, his class will change. This may seem like a very small change, but that’s all it takes to prevent a meteorite from hitting Earth. This is the first such mission. If successful in this, then in future those huge meteorites will be prevented from coming to Earth, which can become a threat to life here.

To protect the Earth from the attacks of meteors, the US space agency NASA has sent a Falcon rocket into space to hit a meteorite present in space with its spacecraft. This is the first such mission. If successful in this, then in future those huge meteorites will be prevented from coming to Earth, which can become a threat to life here.

Scientists are preparing to test such technology from this spacecraft, which can prevent any dangerous meteor or meteorite from hitting the Earth in future. Nasa’s mission, named ‘Dart Mission’, will evaluate the long-running proposal to deactivate a large space rock approaching Earth. This spacecraft will collide with a celestial body or object called Dimoforce. NASA scientists want to see how much the speed and path of the dymoforce can be changed.

However, there is no threat to the Earth from the demophores. This is the first attempt to learn how to deal with such dangers coming towards the earth in future, that is, if such a body or debris came towards the earth yesterday, how can it be kept away. On November 24, 2021, the Falcon 9 rocket, the Dart spacecraft, was launched into space from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Meteorites are the remnants of the Solar System, most of which pose no threat to Earth. But when such a rock revolves around the Sun and moves towards the Earth, there can be a possibility of a collision.

The $30 million Dart mission will target a pair of meteorites that are currently orbiting each other. Such an orbit is called a binary. The name of the larger of these two meteorites is Didymos, which is spread in about 780 meters. The dimoforce is about 160 meters wide. After a meteorite the size of a dymophores hits Earth, the impact will be as much as the energy of several atomic bombs. Millions of lives can be lost by this. But meteorites with a width of three hundred meters and more can destroy entire continents. A one kilometer sized body can put the whole earth in danger.

Dart will continue to orbit in space until September next year and then hit its target six million miles away from Earth. The dart will hit the dymoforce at a speed of about fifteen thousand miles per hour (6.6 km per second). Due to this, the direction of the demoforce is expected to change only a few millimeters. If this happens, his class will change. This may seem like a very small change, but that’s all it takes to prevent a meteorite from hitting Earth. This is the first such mission. If successful in this, then in future those huge meteorites will be prevented from coming to Earth, which can become a threat to life here.

NASA’s Planetary Defense Coordination Office said its impact is expected to be seen between September 26 and October 1, 2022, next year. The meteorite will be 6.8 million miles (11 million kilometers) away from Earth at that time. The amount of energy released by this collision is not clear, because not much is known about the internal structure of the Dimophores meteorite. The size of the Dart spacecraft is the size of a large fridge. It has limousine shaped solar panels on both sides.

It will collide with Demoforce at a speed of fifteen thousand miles per hour. Scientists have done small experiments like this in the lab, but now want to test it in a real scenario. NASA scientists say that the Didymos-Dymoforce system is better because it can be detected by telescopes on Earth. Like how is their brightness or how much time do they take to revolve.

For the past several years, a meteorite named Bennu is being discussed all over the world. It is being said that in the coming years it may hit the Earth. After all, when it will collide with the Earth, there are various speculations about it. But now NASA has put an end to all the speculations. According to NASA, the possibility of Bennu hitting the Earth is very low. If this happens, then its collision can happen on September 24, 2182. The possibility of Bennu hitting Earth is higher than before, but scientists are not worried about it.

Significantly, NASA was very concerned about Bennu earlier, so it sent a spacecraft to this asteroid. This spacecraft of Osiris REX was sent in 2018. It managed to successfully land on the surface of the meteorite in late 2020. After this the vehicle started sending samples. The spacecraft reported that Bennu is a very dark and ancient meteorite. A NASA statement said the spacecraft collected samples from the surface of Bennu, providing accurate data for better predictions.

We may not have found life outside the earth, but many guests from space pass near us. Rocks that usually come from the region between Mars and Jupiter can answer many questions about the birth and evolution of the Solar System and the Universe, not just Earth. These rocks are meteorites. Meteoroids are rocks that revolve around the sun like a planet, but they are much smaller than planets in size. Most of the meteorites in our solar system are found in the meteorite region orbiting Mars and Jupiter. Apart from this, they keep moving in the orbit of other planets and revolve around the sun along with the planet.

When our solar system was formed about four and a half billion years ago, such clouds of gas and dust, which could not take the shape of a planet and were left behind, were transformed into these rocks, ie meteorites. This is the reason that their shape is also not round like the planets. There are many such meteorites in the universe, whose circumference is hundreds of miles and most are the size of a small stone. Due to being born with planets, by studying them, answers to the questions related to the universe, solar system and the origin of planets can be found.

If a fast-moving rock is likely to come closer than about six million miles from Earth, then it is considered dangerous by space organizations. NASA’s sanitary system already monitors such threats. According to this system, the meteorite from which there is a real threat of danger to the Earth is still eight and a half hundred years away. However, scientists are confident that in the coming time a planetary defense system will be developed, on which work has already started.
