Unironically this could be cool. If the asteroid in question has metals, it’d prompt a new space race to go check that shit out.

If the odds get significantly higher, maybe 10-20%, it would be time to fly some seismometers to the Moon. The amount of science we could get from the impact monitoring would be staggering.

How big of a crater would this make? What craters of a similar size already exist on the moon?

The moon should definitely take one for the team

Earth looking at that asteroid like: https://youtu.be/5uXQOPotV38?si=DJUABBkjcj-nrS7D
I can pretty much guarantee that if things hits the Moon, on the near side, and is spectacular to watch…
…it’ll be raining in Dublin that night.
If there’s a risk it hits the moon, isn’t there a risk it slingshots back to us?
