NASA is planning to crash a spacecraft into an asteroid in 2022 to see if its impact will change the asteroid's course. That's even though Earth faces no such immediate danger. The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) is the space agency's first test mission of a planetary defence system. According to NASA's website, no known asteroid larger than 140 metres in size has a significant chance to hit Earth for the next hundred years.

It'd be funny if they somehow changed the course of the asteroid post collision and they are coming right at the Earth lol .

Imagine usa uses the rocket to trajectory the asteroid crushing it towards earth instead of destroying it in space
