Out of Control SpaceX rocket on collision course with the moon

The Falcon 9 rocket, launched in 2015 to deploy NOAA's Deep Space Climate Observatory, is on a collision course with the moon. Due to its propellant usage, the rocket's upper stage couldn't return to Earth or escape the Earth-moon system, resulting in a derelict orbit. Predicted to impact the moon on March 4, 2022, the collision is expected to create a significant crater. This event highlights the challenges of space missions and the importance of tracking space debris.
