True. The claim is true. Although Piotr Kosek did not specify which mission he was referring to, new results from the DART (Double Asteroid Redirection Test) mission were published on March 8, 2026, just before the statement d...

"The mission proved highly successful. The collision shortened Dimorphos's orbit around Didymos by 32 minutes. Since then, astronomers have continued monitoring the asteroid system, gathering nearly 6,000 observations. These measurements show that the pair's overall orbit around the Sun slowed by about 11.7 micrometres per second—roughly 40 millimetres per hour—reducing the radius of their orbit by an estimated 360 metres." "Cała ta skomplikowana misja okazała się oszałamiającym sukcesem, a rezultaty wręcz przerosły najśmielsze oczekiwania i najbardziej optymistyczne symulacje komputerowe inżynierów z NASA."

nieodwracalnie wpłyną na ten skomplikowany rozkład sił w całym tym tańczącym w głębokim kosmosie duecie. I jakakolwiek zmiana parametrów fizycznych narzucona temu mniejszemu księżycowi, no natychmiast poprzez silną, niewidzialną nić grawitacji oddziałuje też na zachowanie głównego tego ogromnego ciała. I w ten sam sposób działa to w drugą stronę. Cała ta skomplikowana misja okazała się oszałamiającym sukcesem, a rezultaty wręcz przerosły najśmielsze oczekiwania i najbardziej optymistyczne symulacje komputerowe inżynierów z NASA. Jeszcze przed zderzeniem zakładano zachowawczo, że skrócenie czasu obiegu Dmorfosa o zaledwie 73 sekundy będzie można bez wahania uznać za spektakularny triumf technologiczny. Tymczasem najnowsze skrupulatne i wielokrotnie weryfikowane, co jest ważne, pomiary teleskopowe wykazały coś niesamowitego. Precyzyjne uderzenie sztucznej sondy w powierzchn

"We are entering the Vera Rubin Observatory, and it will be a true game changer, because we are launching a telescope with the largest digital camera in human history, 3.2 gigapixels. This monster will not look at a single point, but will scan the entire sky, constantly creating a time-lapse film of the universe's existence. The LSST program, or Legacy Survey of Space and Time, will generate 20 TB of data every night. Mike Brown said directly: "If someone gave him a suitcase full of money and told him to find Planet Nine, he would build something like the Vera Rubin telescope." This device is capable of detecting objects orders of magnitude dimmer than anything we have had so far. Scientists estimate that the number of known objects in the solar system will increase by as much as a hundredfold thanks to it. If Planet Nine is there, Vera Rubin will find it. If it's the Kuiper Belt disk, Vera Rubin will see its structure. "

"The physical radius of this closed orbit noticeably decreased by tens of meters. And this directly means that as humanity, we deliberately and effectively pushed Dimorphos onto a much tighter, shorter, and faster path orbiting Didymos. "

"Artemis 2 still hasn't launched, and now most likely due to helium leak problems in the rocket's second stage, this launch will be delayed until April. Let's hope it happens then. But the Moon landing itself will also be delayed until 2028. And now I'm saying here that perhaps even later. It won't be good if it happens this decade. "
