Thanks. I wonder where/when we will see results, comments.

That was impressive for sure!

Astounding the detail and image quality. Not to mention the accuracy. It really is very impressive what automated space machines can do these days. I am old enough to remember how improbable this kind of thing would have once seemed, and now it is practically routine. Quite an achievement!

My understanding is that the small probe that followed behind will have photos of the actual impact, but it will be several days before those become available.

There will undoubtedly be stuff on NASA's official Twitter stream (@NASA - https://twitter.com/NASA)

This NSF forum has some interesting posts https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=47874.120 - points to page 7 (of 7 at the time of posting) of the thread.
NB nasaspaceflight.com is not an official NASA site, it's a reasonably respectable spaceflight enthusiast site, entirely SFW but a great time sponge if you're that way inclined

Accuracy looks almost exact dead centre, like this:

You know when you eat a lot of nuts? Like, a LOT of nuts? That's what that looks like.

Also, does this mean Bruce Willis is out of a job?

Oblivian: They hoped for 10min orbit change.

They got 32

In the next few years scientists will recalculate the orbit and find out that actually this change put the asteroid straight into our path...

😜

It's fake. In the last photo, you can even see the (green) thread that holds the "asteroid" up for filming in the studio. (Obviously, they turned the camera on its side to disguise the direction of gravity).

Yeah, yeah yeah....  :) 

FWIW: The "orbit" they altered was the asteroids path around another asteroid, ( Not the Sun) ,

So in terms of its relationship with us both the DART asteroid and its parent will continue un changed and in no chance of impacting earth...

Awesome let's start crashing Falcon Heavies into stuff and seeing what happens.

(by stuff I mean 'the moon'. I always hated that thing.)

Just call for Bruce Willis.
