Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS)

A satellite that slammed into a crater at the Moon’s south pole in 2009. The impact scattered debris high above the lunar surface. Another lunar craft and telescopes on Earth observed the impact and discovered that the material it excavated included water, confirming earlier observations that shaded craters at the poles could contain large amounts of water ice.
