and also there is one more part left on the surface of the moon I guess

@Londonn Yes, but he's talking about the Eagle ascension module that left the moon and docked with Columbia. Apparently, orbital mechanics around the moon are pretty funky, so having something last in orbit around the moon for 52 years would be remarkable. He goes into in the video, if you haven't watched it.

@DunningKruger never knew something in the orbit would crash in the end, I always thought they'd live there forever

@Londonn The moon's weird, apparently.
