A NASA spacecraft has intentionally slammed into asteroid Dimorphos in humanity's first test of planetary defense.
During an interview with CNN's Chris Wallace, Tyler Perry addresses criticism that his famous "Madea" character perpetuates negative stereotypes.
NASA spacecraft crashes into asteroid in defense test
The galactic grand slam occurred at a harmless asteroid 7 million miles (9.6 million kilometers) away, with the spacecraft named Dart plowing into the small space rock at 14,000 mph (22,500 kph).
Telescopes around the world and in space aimed at the same point in the sky to capture the spectacle. Though the impact was immediately obvious — Dart’s radio signal abruptly ceased — it will be days or even weeks to determine how much the asteroid’s path was changed.

NASA is about to crash a spacecraft into an asteroid
NASA is set to slam a spacecraft into a little asteroid on Monday evening in an attempt to redirect it.
Why it matters: The first-of-it-kind mission — called DART — marks the first true test of whether or not NASA will one day be able to push a potentially dangerous asteroid off a collision course with Earth if the need should ever arise.
NASA spacecraft closes in on asteroid for head-on collision
The galactic slam occurred at a harmless asteroid 7 million miles (11.3 million kilometers) away, with the spacecraft named Dart plowing into the space rock at 14,000 mph (22,500 kph).
"We have impact!" Mission Control's Elena Adams announced, jumping up and down and thrusting her arms skyward.

NASA shifts into Earth defense mode tonight, with a mission that is part science and part science fiction.
A spacecraft will complete a 10-month flight through the solar system, and intentionally collide with a harmless asteroid. It's a test for a potential real threat far in the future.
