A rare video captured an asteroid crashing into the Moon. But did you know the reason why this happens so often? Unlike Earth, the Moon has no atmosphere to slow down or burn meteors before impact. Every asteroid strikes the surface at full speed, carving out deep craters that remain for billions of years. That’s why the Moon looks scarred with spots each one is a record of a violent cosmic collision. 👀✨ #space #SpaceX #NASA #fblifestyle | Moon Watchers Club

In a rare moment, an asteroid was captured hitting the Moon during the day. Because the Moon has no atmosphere, asteroids don’t burn up like they do on Earth they strike the surface at incredible speeds, leaving behind new craters. Most of the spots we see on the Moon today are the results of such violent impacts that happened over billions of years. Capturing one live is like witnessing the Moon’s history being written. 👀✨ #space #SpaceX #NASA #fblifestyle | Cosmic Adventure
