Early this morning, a SpaceX rocket slammed into the moon at seven times the speed of sound. Now, lunar orbiters are trying to get a look at the aftermath.
The practical value is usually procedural rather than dramatic: the work matters if it produces better measurements, more reliable hardware, or a clearer path to the next experiment.
What to watch:
- scientific results from the mission
- follow-up research publications
- practical applications on Earth
