Hey, they're photographing that timeshare I bought!

Seriously Cy-guy, thanks for keeping us informed. I would be less interested in learning what crashed as why it was purposefully crashed. I know that NASA had money to burn in the 1960s, but litterbugging the moonscape with expensive spacecrafts seems wasteful even for these guys. Uh-oh, my conspiracy-theorist side is showing again...

According to the artical the crashed the space craft on purpose after it had completed its mission. That means they had to fire the rockets in order to slow it down. so they know where it was when they sent the order. does it not also track that the should have some idea as to where it would have come down. I mean we can do the same thing with satellites we can make sure or old satellites go down at sea where there not near as likely to hurt some one are cause damage to property as on land. Well it might be cool to have a Satellite land in your back yard. it would not be so cool to have it land on your car or in your living room
