ESA's Hera spacecraft is set to arrive at the binary asteroid system Didymos-Dimorphos this month to survey the crater left by NASA's DART impact in 2022. The mission aims to assess the effectiveness of kinetic impactor deflection, a key planetary defense technique. The outcome will refine models for future asteroid deflection missions.
