NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission will impact its target asteroid, Dimorphos, at an
oblique angle that will not be known prior to the impact. We computed iSALE-3D simulations of DART-
like impacts on asteroid surfaces at different impact angles and found that the vertical momentum transfer
