ESA finally strikes on the moon!!!

News from the internet that European Space Agency (ESA)'s SMART-1 crashed onto the moon purposely, which means the spacecraft's purpose is to collect scientific data.

SMART-1 actually made repeated orbits of the moon until it managed to crash into the moon during one of its closest approach - called perhilion in scientific terms.
