Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite impact on moon during eclipse

Hi All,Here's a link to video studies of lunar impacts done on the dark side of 
the moon. It is evident that impacts, especially visual,  are occurring more 
frequently than generally thought. There was a paper published not long ago 
which concluded from the data that the moon's soils are being completely 
resurfaced every 80,000 years.
I was actually imaging the eclipse myself, but gave up just before the impact 
due to below zero windchills! Here's a link to my composite image.

Have an impactful day, DAN

Hi All,

Regarding Tracy's post--in a full Blood moon, an impact was observeable--
Good call Tracy...which may not have been seen on a "brighter" moon.

So, are there Any Moon observations that are being performed with different
filters. I believe impacts are occuring more often than we (see) know. ??

Does anyone have a guesstimate on the speed/size/origin/crater size
of this particular impact?

Nite, John

We watched the lunar eclipse Sunday night, although in mid-Pacific we were only 
able to see it from totality on. As the Moon 
started to reemerge from shadow, one of our friends said, "Does anyone else see 
that reddish light on the moon by the terminator?" 
Squinting, we just caught the end of a very brief flare. I was hoping and 
wondering if we had spotted an impact, and lo!

A meteorite hit the moon during yesterday’s total lunar eclipse
Observers of yesterday’s lunar eclipse were blessed with the first known 
sighting of a meteorite impact during such an event. The 
so-called “super wolf blood moon” was eagerly watched by ...
www.newscientist.com

Another of our friends online caught the impact on video:
"At 1:23:04 <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idU8JfrS-xM=4984s>you can see an 
impact flash occur on the moon at about the 8 
o'clock position near the edge! This matches with a variety of other videos of 
the eclipse which caught the same event. " ~~

I was very lucky!

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite impact on moon during eclipse

2019-01-23 Thread Alfredo Petrov via Meteorite-list 
Remember that from any given spot on Earth, we can see tens or hundreds of
meteors every night and, if we had no atmosphere, almost all of those would
impact and create a flash, instead of burning up in the atmosphere.
Assuming that the same number of loose stones per unit volume of space pass
by the Moon as the Earth, there should be several such flashes per night
visible on the dark side of the moon. It might be really interesting to
watch when a lunar eclipse happens to occur during one of the large meteor
showers.
Cheers,
Alfredo
