NASA is set to make history today when it smashes a spacecraft into an asteroid at over 14,700 miles per hour as part of the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission—and the LICIACube satellite will capture it on camera.

Images returned by the Italian-built spacecraft should show impact craters and debris thrown up by the collision.
