Something is about to crash into the moon. Astronomers are tracking this object as about 12 meters tall, which is like a four-story building and 4 meters wide as it approaches the moon. We know what it is. It is the 4,000 kilogram upper stage of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, and it has been drifting through space for the past year and a half after it launched two missions towards the moon. Over 680 Falcon 9 rockets have been launched. Most of these upper stages have either reentered Earth's atmosphere or are also still in space orbiting close to Earth. But after this one completed its mission. It didn't have any more fuel, so it couldn't dispose of itself in a safer area of space. Somehow it got far enough away from Earth that it's going to impact the moon, and hard. It's going to hit the moon at about 8,750 kilometers per hour. This will not only crush it since it's metal and now empty, but it will also make a new crater about 20 to 30 meters wide, about right there. There will be a plume of lunar dust, probably a couple of kilometers tall, right at the edge of the moon right there.If you have a good and fast enough telescope and camera, you might be able to see it, but that will be too small for our eyes to see. They think it's going to hit right next to Einstein crater, so right there on August fifth at 2:35 AM Eastern, and you can calculate when it is in your time zone from there.
