"Kunzwa kusingatsananguriki kuona chimwe chinhu chawakabatanidzwa nacho kubva padanho rekuti 'mazwi ari pabepa' ave echokwadi uye achiiswa muchadenga," akadaro Andy Cheng, mumwe wekuferefetwa kweDART kuJohns Hopkins APL nemunhu akauya. kumusoro nepfungwa yeDART. “Aya angori magumo echiito chekutanga, uye zvikwata zveDART zvekuferefeta neveinjiniya zvine basa rakawanda rekuita mugore rinotevera kugadzirira chiitiko chikuru ─ Kukanganisa kweDART paDimorphos. Asi manheru ano tinopemberera!”
Chimbo chimwe chete cheDART, iyo Didymos Reconnaissance uye Asteroid Kamera yeOptical navigation (DRACO), ichabatidza vhiki kubva zvino uye inopa mifananidzo yekutanga kubva muchadenga. DART icharamba ichifamba kunze kwekutenderera kwePasi kutenderera Zuva kwemwedzi gumi inotevera kusvikira Didymos neDimorphos dzave pedyo nemakiromita 10 miriyoni (6.8 miriyoni emakiromita) kubva kuPasi.
Nhungamiro yakaomesesa, yekufambisa, uye yekudzora sisitimu, ichishanda pamwe nemaalgorithms anonzi Diki-Muviri Maneuvering Autonomous Real Time Navigation (SMART Nav), inogonesa iyo DART spacecraft kuona uye kusiyanisa pakati peasteroids maviri. Iyo sisitimu inozotungamira iyo spacecraft yakananga kuDimorphos. Izvi zvese zvichaitika mukati meawa imwe yekukanganisa.
Johns Hopkins APL anotungamira basa reDART reNASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office sechirongwa cheHofisi yePlanetary Missions Programme. NASA inopa rutsigiro rwekutumwa kubva kunzvimbo dzinoverengeka, kusanganisira Jet Propulsion Laboratory muSouthern California, Goddard Space Flight Center muGreenbelt, Maryland, Johnson Space Center muHouston, Glenn Research Center muCleveland, uye Langley Research Center muHampton, Virginia. Kuvhurwa uku kunotungamirwa neNASA's Launch Services Chirongwa, yakavakirwa kusangano reKennedy Space Center muFlorida. SpaceX ndiyo yekutanga masevhisi mupi weiyo DART mishoni.
