Moon Struck
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
The Moon's surface is scarred by ancient impacts, but flashes of light from new meteoroid strikes are a recent discovery. Observers using modest telescopes recorded six confirmed flashes during the 1999 and 2001 Leonid meteor showers. These impacts can be as bright as a third magnitude star, showing the Moon is still being shaped by its environment.
