It is developing a special type of spacecraft called DART (Double Asteroid Redirection Test), which is about the size of a fridge, and can be fired at an asteroid with enough force to change its trajectory. NASA plans to test out DART on a pair of asteroids named Didymos A and B, which are scheduled to make a "distant approach" to Earth in October 2022.
