China planning asteroid re-direct mission for planetary defense test
After surveying the asteroid, China's spacecraft will then act as the "impactor" or a battering ram, flying into the asteroid. NASA's DART mission in 2022 was successful in altering the orbit of a binary asteroid using the same method.
