Moon spacecraft set for crash-landing
By BBC News Online Science Editor Dr David Whitehouse
May 24, 1999
Scientists want to crash-land the Lunar Prospector spacecraft into the
Moon's south-pole region. They believe this may help them determine how much
water is on the Moon.

Also, if you will recall, the ashes of Eugene Shoemaker are onboard
Lunar Prospector.
