Comment on Record-Tying Falcon 9 to Launch DART Asteroid Impact Mission Tomorrow Night by Viktor

The problem of asteroid hazard is very serious and will always hang over humanity like the sword of Damocles. It is quite natural when everyone wants to hope for the success of space missions aimed at preventing this danger. But when such a mission is conceived with violating the law of physics (the impossibility of momentum transferring to the target as a whole during an perfectly inelastic collision) and astronomical data (the crumbly internal structure of the near-Earth asteroids in the presence of large vacuum voids, which are able to completely damp the shock wave already near the collision zone), then without sufficient theoretical and model-experimental substantiation the probability of its success will be extremely low.
