Something was reported centuries ago striking the moon. I remember reading it in a book, but not the specifics - Europe, abbey records, something like that. Something about the horns of the moon observed to have split.... I think they matched the report to a fresh impact crater.
As others mentioned, strikes were recorded during the Leonids. The Leonids a few years back... now that was a fun observing session. Remember watching it from Tooradin.
