In an experiment that indicated that it would protect the Earth from any future threats, NASA announced that the spacecraft that deliberately pushed it to collide with an asteroid last month had succeeded in pushing it out of its normal orbit, the first time humans had changed the movement of a celestial object.

In what the world is waiting for, NASA considers an important step in the need to probe human capabilities to protect the planet from destruction and from potential future threats by deliberately ramming an spacecraft into an asteroid to divert it away from Earth.

Apparently the world is about to change, with China's plans and many other countries, as well as a deluge of robotic missions to the moon, the United States plans to return people to the moon by 2025 and establish a permanent base there

It is generally known that Earth completes one full cycle on its axis every 24 hours, and in a record not recorded since the 1960s, when scientists began measuring the planet's rotation with high-resolution atomic clocks. Last June 29, Earth recorded its shortest ever day.
