So did NASA not track the asteroid for the last year? Like they just crash a rocket into it and call it good right away? No follow up or deeper analysis? You'd think they would want to monitor it for any weird or unexpected behavior but instead they find out from a high school teacher?

People still think ~~tachyons~~ neutrinos move faster than light because a professional laboratory gathered data incorrectly one time... I'm not saying these high schoolers messed up their data collection, but it seems more likely than them discovering a new physical phenomenon
But tachyons are by definitions just "hypothetical particles moving faster than light". Meaning if they exist, of course they move faster than light. I don't know which lab your talking about, but people are absolutely right to think that tachyons are faster than light (if they believe tachyons to exist, which of course never has been proven).
Maybe you have the wrong word here and that people think that neutrinos can move faster than light, since there was a false measurement in CERN? But that one has been reported and updated already.
