3-ton leftover rocket on collision course with moon

Scientists say a 3-ton leftover rocket could leave a crater in the moon up to 66-feet wide, and send moon dust spewing hundreds of miles into space. Experts are split on where it came from. Originally it was believed to be part of a SpaceX Falcon rocket, but now the junk's founder believes it could be from a Chinese launch. Wherever it came from, telescopes won’t be able to see the impact, and it could take weeks to confirm the collision.
