ICYMI: NASA’s two most famous space telescopes teamed up to image the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART).
. Despite the modest mass of the buggy-sized spacecraft, the collision ejected large plumes of material that caused the double-asteroid system to increase in brightness roughly threefold.
Although James Webb and Hubble have already viewed some of the same celestial targets before, these DART images mark the first time the two space telescopes have teamed up to captureThese space-based observations of DART’s impact and the resulting debris cloud will provide astronomers with the data they need to better understand the nature of Dimorphos’ surface.
The James Webb Space Telescope observed DART’s collision with Dimorphos for a total of five hours, capturing 10 images. Meanwhile, Hubble captured 45 images immediately before and after the collision. Over the next three weeks, Hubble will continue to check in on Dimorphos 10 more times, monitoring how the ejecta clouds evolve and fade over time.
