Moon Flash In 2007 Was Called A Moon Fart. Same Flash Now Is Called Meteor Strike, Neither Is Logical.
In 2007, there was an article from space.com explaining the moon flashes seen by many people from Earth was just a moon fart.

Of course, that explanation makes no sense, since there is no oxygen on the moon to ignite the gas. So, when this week a flash nearly exactly the same was explained as a 1ft rock hitting the moon, I has to raise the BS flag.

They say they have been tracking the meteor ‘explosions’ for 8 yrs. Why didn’t they say that in 2007 if that was
the truth??
So, when people started questioning how there could be an explosion creating a flash on the moon, when there is no oxygen, the shills hit the waves with the explanation that moon rocks contain oxygen.
So when they realized they couldn’t explain the oxygen problem, they suddenly change the story to this.
(FYI, lunar meteors hit the ground with so much kinetic energy that they don’t require an oxygen atmosphere to create a visible explosion. The flash of light comes not from combustion but rather from the thermal glow of molten rock and hot vapors at the impact site.)
Point 1. In school aged 15 I watched my science teacher demonstrate that oxygen is not required to burn things by burning a taper in an atmosphere of chlorine.
Point 2. It is not a question of oxygen dissolving in water; it is a questions of oxygen being contained in mineral salts in the rocks
