A piece of space junk crash-landed on the Moon's far side on March 4, 2022 (Credit: ESA.Int)

A school-bus-sized object, which has been orbiting in space at about 5,600 miles per hour since 2014, crashed-landed on the Moon on March 4, 2022. The 40-foot-long, 3,000-kilogram piece of space debris is believed to have carved a massive — 60 to 100-feet-wide — hole near the Hertzsprung Crater on the Moon's far side. However, since the exact impact location is unknown, it may take NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter a few months to identify and image the new crater.

    This is a very interesting article, but it also tells us of stuff we need to work on, such as runaway rocket debris hitting Earth instead of the Moon. This may be a good call for action to Scientists and other people to start thinking of ways to clean up space, so nobody gets hurt on missions, travels, etc.

            WOW... Although I'm worried about the moon... These phenomena are rare and amazing. To see one up close would be dangerous but cool!
