Asteroid Coming For Earth And It’s NASA’s Fault

LICIACube had observed the NASA DART collision with Dimorphos and used the data it collected to feed into the supercomputers that NASA’s Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility (NAIF) possesses.

This information was processed to show (in a simulation) how much debris from Dimorphos was produced and scattered into space. According to the simulation, an estimated three million particles of rocky material were created.

Some of the particles are large enough to be considered meteors and can be observed from the Earth with high powered telescopes. These “space boulders” numbered more than three dozen, some of which are expected to travel on a path to Mars.
