Space is so gay now. Let’s pretend for a moment that DART actually faceplanted into an asteroid. What am I hoping to learn from that? Was there a BCA performed? Do we really think our society is to the point where we could learn anything beneficial from this event and use the results in a meaningful way now or in the near future? Of course, the whole thing is faker than shit but I still don’t understand what normies think is happening here.

How to hit an asteroid? Assuming it's real, hitting a rock zooming through space is probably not as easy as it looks.
Does learning how to hit an asteroid help you in your everyday life? Does it advance our society in any meaningful way?
You were the one who asked the question.
And you don’t have any answers. It’s been fun.
