Mystery spacecraft set to crash on the moon, NASA says

A mystery is brewing 240,000 miles from Earth, where a spacecraft is about to crash into the moon. The mystery? Whose spacecraft is it.

Reuters reports the rocket booster, which is expected to crash on Friday, March 4, was first believed to be from a SpaceX launch years ago. 

But NASA said on Tuesday it believes the rocket to be from China's Chang'e 5 test vehicle which launched in October of 2014. The agency said the rocket was briefly in Earth orbit before it was sent it into a lunar transfer orbit. The test was for a future mission to land on the moon, collect samples and return them to Earth.
