In the small hours of tomorrow morning, NASA’s LCROSS spacecraft will divide into two sections and crash into a dark lunar crater. The instrumentation probe will observe the impact of the booster section into the lunar surface and identify the materials excavated from deep under the regolith. Both impacts will be analyzed from the earth. NASA TV will be covering the event live and people with big telescopes will be able to watch it themselves.

There’s lots of detail on the LCROSS web site (http://lcross NULL.arc NULL.nasa NULL.gov/).
