Such crashes were instrumental in mapping the internal structure of the Moon.

The square of a satellite's orbital period is proportional to the cube of its average distance from the planet.

On December 19, 2000, the spacecraft captured an image of the moon Himalia, but the resolution was too low to show surface details.

The rate of orbital decay depends on the satellite's cross sectional area and mass, as well as variations in the air density of the upper atmosphere.

Any object within that distance would tend to become a satellite of the moon, rather than of the planet itself.
