Part of a used SpaceX rocket floating in space since last year crashed at high speed into the moon on Wednesday. The object is the second stage of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket that ‌had launched a lunar lander from Firefly Aerospace toward the moon in January 2025. Although the impact was not visible to the naked eye on Earth, a telescope in Chile spotted what astronomers have identified as the debris plume resulting from the crash. #spacex #spaceexploration #moon 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zm
