Godspeed, Hera! The European Space Agency (ESA) successfully launched their latest interplanetary probe Hera yesterday atop a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral. Hera has begun its long trek across the Solar System to reach the binary asteroid known as Dimorphos and Didymos, which became famous when NASA intentionally smashed their DART mission into the smaller Dimorphos to alter its orbit in a test of planetary defence in 2022. That mission was a huge success and ESA is sending Hera to conduct

La primera misión de defensa planetaria de la Agencia Espacial Europea (ESA), 'Hera', despegó desde Cabo Cañaveral este lunes. La nave emprendió viaje hacia el sistema binario de asteroides Didymos, al que llegará en otoño de 2026. Su objetivo es probar tecnología capaz de desviar asteroides para proteger a la Tierra de un eventual impacto. Para ello investigará los asteroides 'Dimorphos', los más pequeños, de 150 metros de diámetro. Estos asteroides suponen un peligro para la vida en la Tierra

Cosmic Evolution on Instagram: "In 2022, NASA intentionally impacted the spacecraft DART with Dimorphos, the small moon of asteroid Didymos, to test planetary defense strategies. This mission marked humanity’s first successful attempt to alter the motion of a celestial body, proving that kinetic impact can measurably change an asteroid’s orbit—an essential step in protecting Earth from future threats. #nasa #missionary #sky #viralreelsvideo❤️ #usa"
