Spacecraft's impact changed asteroid's orbit around the sun in a save-the-Earth test, study finds

Scientists reported Friday that the 2022 impact by the Dart spacecraft not only trimmed the asteroid's orbit around its bigger space rock companion, but also around the sun. Researchers say their findings could help divert an incoming killer space rock given enough advance…
