Well, it's been talked about for years, but this morning it made the news (thanks to NASA releasing new photos). We've trashed the moon. Not only did we leave behind tracks and crash/landing marks, but astronauts also threw out backpacks and other such items. Leaving them for the moon people's goodwill perhaps? Evidently they didn't want them either, for everything is still there.
They claim our space trash has become such a problem that it's now a hazard for satellites (the ones that are working and not just aimlessly floating around, that is). So I wonder if garbage companies who are running out of landfill space will attempt to make the moon their next dump site?
