The document is a press kit from NASA detailing the Demonstration of Autonomous Rendezvous Technology (DART) mission, scheduled for launch in April 2005. DART aims to test autonomous rendezvous capabilities using an unmanned spacecraft that will perform all functions without human intervention. The mission involves the DART spacecraft autonomously locating and maneuvering close to the MUBLCOM satellite, utilizing advanced technologies such as the Advanced Video Guidance Sensor (AVGS) and Autonomous Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (ARPO) software. The successful demonstration of these technologies is expected to benefit future space missions requiring in-space assembly and servicing.

Was NASA DART successful?

Janet Petro has served as the acting administrator since January 20, 2025.

Why did the Dart mission fail?

How much did DART cost? The DART project cost $324.5 million. $308 million was spent on spacecraft development, $68.8 million for launch services, and $16.5 million is expected to be spent on operations and data analysis. For additional context, read our analysis of NASAs planetary defense budget.

Who is the head of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration?

Although DARTs collision avoidance system eventually activated 1 minute and 23 seconds before the collision, the inaccurate perception of its distance and speed in relation to MUBLCOM prevented DART from taking effective action to avoid a collision. Less than 11 hours into the mission, DART collided with MUBLCOM.

Who is the current head of NASA?

NASA is an independent civilian space agency under the executive branch, created by Congress to help execute policy or provide special services (other independent agencies include the Central Intelligence Agency, the Environmental Protection Agency and the National Science Foundation).
