Episode Details

A SpaceX rocket booster, accidentally left drifting since January, is hurtling toward the moon at 5,400 mph—no threat to Earth, but a rare scientific opportunity. Originally meant to burn up in our atmosphere, gravity and solar winds sent it on an unintended lunar collision course. Scientists are excited: this high-speed impact could reveal new insights into how objects strike the moon’s surface. It’s not the first human-made crash there, but it’s a wild, unplanned chapter in our space story.
