#spacex #falcon9 #DART

Date : November 23, 2021
Launch Pad : SLC-4E

Rocket : Falcon 9 Block 5

SpaceX will launch the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft atop a Falcon 9 Block 5, which will lift off from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E), at the Vandenberg Space Force Base, in California. DART is the first ever kinetic impactor, meaning the spacecraft will attempt to demonstrate the ability to deflect the asteroid Didymos B by colliding with it at a high speed (approximately 6.6 km/s).
