- A discarded SpaceX rocket is on a high-speed collision course with the moon
A SpaceX rocket's upper stage is on a collision course with the moon, expected to impact at 5,400 mph near Einstein Crater, creating a visible dust plume and crater. Scientists will study the event to understand debris hazards for future lunar missions, with NASA and South Korea's Danuri orbiter capturing before-and-after imagery.
