DART stands for Double Asteroid Redirection Test.
It crashed into it to change its path around the solar system. There's other probes around to observe the results.
This is for the (hopefully hypothetical) event where we soon need to change the trajectory of an asteroid that would collide with the Earth and cause serious destruction without intervention.
