100% NOT CLICKBAIT A ASTERIOD BOMBED BY A JAPANESE PROBE .
#1
Shocked 
The Japanese Hayabusa-2 spacecraft is thought to have detonated an explosive charge on the asteroid it is exploring.

The idea was to create an artificial crater on the object known as Ryugu.
If this is successful - and the early indications are positive - the probe will later return to gather samples from the gouged depression.
Scientists believe these samples could help them better understand how Earth and the other planets were formed in the early Solar System. Seeing as the Ryugu the asteriod is a relic left over from the early days of our Solar System, and therefore records the conditions and chemistry of that time - some 4.5 billion years ago. Behold the might Mr. Clintberg B as he analyzes this data.
