NASA TV Coverage of LCROSS Impact.news.nationalgeographic.com:gouged what was expected to be a 100-foot-wide (30-meter-wide) hole in a shadowy crater near the moon's south pole, letting fly more than 200 tons of material, scientists estimated before the launch. "Any time you crash, obviously you destroy some area of lunar surface for any kind of scientific study, and that's not good," said NASA's lunar sample curator Gary Lofgren, speaking with National Geographic News earlier this year. (Read about NASA's moon-rock collection.) Last year the International Council for Science's committee on space research imposed new documentation requirements to maintain the integrity of future discoveries—and LCROSS-like crashes—on the moon.SUV-size LCROSS and its used-up, two-ton Centaur rocket both crashed into the moon today.

letting fly more than 200 tons of material

what happens to all the flying debris, are they going to clean up after them?

they treating it like they are playing computer games... no one will EVER be living on the moon.

i am not happy. its the worlds moon not NASA'S moon. there should be a world vote before things like this are allowed.
