SpaceX Falcon 9 Rocket: A rocket launched in the year 2015 can hit the Moon in a few weeks. This rapidly growing piece of space junk is the upper part of the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket that carried the 'Deep Space Climate Observatory' satellite from Earth. Since then it has been randomly orbiting the Earth and the Moon.
Asteroid watcher Bill Gray has been keeping an eye on the 4-ton booster since the rocket's launch. They learned this month that their orbit-tracking software predicted that the booster would hit the lunar surface on March 4, moving at more than 9,000 kilometers per hour. The booster is making a lot of acrobatics as it moves forward, due to which it is difficult to predict exactly how fast and when it will hit the surface of the Moon. It is likely to collide on the other side of the Moon, so it will not be visible from Earth.
A new crater will form in the dark side of the Moon
Some astronomers say that the collision is not a big deal, but it is quite exciting for space archaeologists. If it collides with the surface of the Moon, a new crater will be formed in the dark part of the Moon. The first man-made object to make contact with the Moon was the Soviet Luna 2 in 1959. That was an extraordinary achievement, as it happened only two years after the launch of the first artificial Earth satellite, Sputnik 1.
The mission consisted of a rocket, a probe, and three bombs. A bomb released a cloud of sodium gas so that the collision could be seen from Earth. The then Soviet Union did not want the unprecedented mission to be called a 'rumour'. Various spacecraft, like the Japanese relay satellite Okina in 2009, has been ejected from orbit in the east. Others were deliberately crashed after the completion of their term. NASA's Ebb and Flow spacecraft intentionally collided with the Moon's the South Pole in 2012.
