The Guardian -  A four-ton piece of a discarded SpaceX rocket that has been floating in space since last year is believed to have unintentionally crashed into the moon at high speed, in a collision that poses no danger to Earth but was expected to blast out a new lunar crater. The object, the size of a building, is part of the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket that had launched a lunar lander from the US company Firefly Aerospace toward the moon in January 2025…. The impact was predicted to kick up a miles-long plume of lunar dust that, while illuminated by sunlight, would be difficult ?to spot with the naked eye from Earth.
