Moon Flash In 2007 Was Called A Moon Fart. Same Flash Now Is Called Meteor Strike, Neither Is Logical.

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


In 2007, there was an article from space.com explaining the moon flashes seen by many people from Earth was just a moon fart.

http://www.space.com/4129-lunar-flash-mystery-solved-moon-passing-gas.html

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.

http://www.universetoday.com/102214/super-bright-explosion-seen-on-the-moon/

 

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.

/space/2013/05/major-solar-system-disturbance-nasa-records-giant-explosion-on-the-moon-as-boulder-crashes-at-56000mph-glowed-like-a-4th-magnitude-star-visible-to-the-naked-eye-on-earth-might-be-part-of-a-much-2459870.html

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.)

To their credit, this explanation is a little more believable, as one can shoot a steel bullet and hit a rock with heavy iron content, and create a spark. The only problem is, even this requires oxygen, as it is still a miniature explosion.
 
What I offer, is a more logical explanation. These are reflections. It makes more sense to me, that these flashes are created by shiny objects on the moon, sort of like when people see shiny objects in the sky because their angle between to object and the sun is right to see a flash (reflection) Or like how someone flashes a mirror to a passing overhead rescue plane.
 
The 2007 article explain that these flashes are usually seen at the line between dark and light on the moon, called the terminator, which would make sense if it was some type of reflection.
 
It doesn’t even have to be an unnatural object, it can just be a large shiny rock. Think about how when a meteor hits the earth, and creates glass from the heat. Well the same thing could happen on the moon. More logical to me than the multiple explanations coming from science. 1ft boulder. LOL

      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
