Moon crash: Discarded rocket part to hit Moon in hours, say scientists

A discarded part of a rocket is hours away from crashing into the Moon, say scientists who first predicted the collision in January.

The three-tonne rocket part, which is hurtling through space at 5,800mph, is expected to hit at 12:25 on Friday.

The effects of the impact on the Moon are expected to be minor.
