NASA is not crashing to satellites into the moon. Rather, They send two "observation satellites" to the moon and crashed a army grade missile into the moon at the south pole of the moon to find out if there was water/ice under the surface of the moon. The 2 satellites were there to observe what particles flew away from the moon after the explosion of the missile.
