NASA reveals images of crater after SpaceX rocket crash on the Moon

NASA has recently published images of the crater formed by the impact of the upper stage of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket on the Moon. This event occurred after a year and a half during which the rocket stage floated through space.

The impact with the lunar surface resulted in a crater approximately 18 meters in diameter and nearly 3 meters deep. The images show the damage caused by this impact, which is now visible on the Moon.

The Falcon 9 rocket was originally launched in 2020, but the upper stage failed to enter orbit, leading it to ultimately crash on the Moon. The impact has sparked interest in the scientific community regarding the effects of human activities in space.

NASA's publication of these images underscores the ongoing exploration and documentation of persistent events in our solar system.
