No. The event you speak of will not happen until october and will be no more than crashing a probe into the moon using nothing but kinetic energy.

Blow it up i say, just a useless lump of rock anyway, at least then I might stop waking up naked in the bush with a half eaten rabbit in my mouth.

The moon causes that? Shit I've been blaming the cocaine binges and painkillers.

MY GOD!
THIS IS THE WORSE THING THAT THE NASA "SOB" COULD EVER DONE!
I don't that this will be tollerated, and I think that Atlas never arrive on the moon, but if "Centaur" fire it's bomb on moon' surface, then.........
............NEW GUESTS IN ARRIVAL very SOON,.... and VERY ENRAGED!.........

Kinetic Energy weapons can be quite devastating, and there are several types in use today in the military.

Example, the NAVY's rail gun, is kinetic energy.

They just better hope they dont hit any little green men up there....

I dont care how much kinetic energy you have I still think the moon is quite safe.
