Resolves YES if after April 1, 2024 and by the end of April 1, 2029 (UTC), anyone successfully redirects an asteroid.
The DART mission (which took place before the time window for this question) is an example.
It will count as a successful asteroid redirection if the trajectory change is measurable, even if it was different than planned.

@HarrisonNathan That was exactly what inspired this question! Otherwise I wouldn't have used April 1 as the date haha
