Musk's rocket is about to hit the moon: American experts "perfectly" explain the impact

According to U.S. astronomers, the wreckage of a rocket launched by Musk's SpaceX will crash into the moon in March, highlighting the growing risk posed by space junk as the company plans to launch tens of thousands of satellites.

However, Musk does not think it is a big deal, because even a collision will not have any impact.

In fact, the above view is also supported by some experts, and Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist at the Astrophysics Center run by Harvard University and the Smithsonian Institution, said that the wreckage of the second stage of a Falcon 9 rocket that SpaceX sent into orbit in 2015 will crash into the moon on March 4, and the impact is not a big deal, however, space enthusiasts believe the impact can provide valuable data.

Climatologist Berger said the event would allow people to observe the underground material ejected after the rocket impact, and the impact would not have much impact.

Jonathan McDowell wrote on his own accredited Twitter account: "To those who have questions, say: Yes, the second stage of an Eagle 9 rocket left in high orbit in 2015 will crash into the moon on March 4. This confirms Project Pluto's predictions by Bill Gray.

Musk's SpaceX is rapidly expanding its Starlink project, a network of satellites in low-Earth orbit that will eventually have more than 30,000 satellites, providing high-speed internet coverage around the world. Space experts warn that all of these launches increase the likelihood of more runaway impacts.
