When an abandoned SpaceX rocket crashes into the Moon

In the early hours of August 5 (UTC), an abandoned SpaceX rocket stage is expected to slam into the Moon at around 8,700 kilometers per hour.
At the center of the discussion is the 1967 Outer Space Treaty, the foundation of international space law with 138 state signatories.
The United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) and the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space are already exploring future solutions.
Article XI of the 1967 Outer Space Treaty already calls on states to share information about their space activities.
Whether that happens will depend less on rocket scientists and more on the space lawyers and diplomats.
