Nasa: A Meteoroid Hits the Moon

Curated by ACT

On May 2, 2006, a meteoroid hit the moon with a force equivalent to four tons of TNT. The event was captured on a 10-inch telescope equipped with a video camera. The video was then played in slow motion in order to be visible by the human eye. Links to similar articles are posted here as well. (June 13, 2006)
