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.

I dont call out shows much, but man..#TheOrvilleNewHorizons is rocking it this season! What an amazing show this is becoming! This is what good sci-fi is today!
BIG NEWS: @ORNL's Frontier computer is the world's first exascale machine! 🎉 This means it can solve over 1️⃣ quintillion calculations per second, which can improve our electrical grids & lead to the development of new materials for energy applications. https://t.co/7ACgRkGqsj
While they may look similar, the two black holes imaged by the Event Horizon Telescope are actually very different in size and distance! #OurBlackHole Credit: ESO/M. Kornmesser, EHT Collaboration
