This just in: The #DARTmission impact is confirmed to have changed the orbit of moonlet Dimorphos around its asteroid Didymos.
For the first time ever, humans changed the motion of a celestial object. More details: go.nasa.gov/3g2C5kp

One of the best perks of being connected to @nasa’s GDC mission is working with Dr. Douglas Rowland. Great mission overview and heliophysics talk during his site visit as part of World Space Week.

“We’re embarking on a new era of humankind, an era in which we potentially have the capability to protect ourselves from something like a dangerous hazardous asteroid impact." 🎙️ @NASA's Lori Glaze, #MaverickScience Grad
IMPACT SUCCESS! Watch from #DARTMIssion’s DRACO Camera, as the vending machine-sized spacecraft successfully collides with asteroid Dimorphos, which is the size of a football stadium and poses no threat to Earth.

UTA physicists find new way to measure properties of a material's surface layer.
The spectroscopy method - Auger-Mediated Positron Sticking (AMPS) - is beneficial because it excludes data from underlying layers.
