Perhaps the biggest problem is that NASA's work can be made to look
like a coverup for a military program, even though no such coverup -- or
any NASA involvement -- would really make much sense. Having the
DART actually hit the target satellite, and having NASA keep refusing to
acknowledge that, makes them look as guilty as space sin.

Why does NASA have to be involved in a demonstrator which is obviously a
cover-up for a military program?
