Anyone ever seen one while observing? Perhaps an impact on the non-lit side of the Moon at other than Full Moon would be easiest to observe?

Now that is amazing!
All the times I've cursed the full moon..not anymore.. something else to try and capture

[ving (David)]

Very interesting.

Wont be long and there will be amateurs with their telescopes trained on the moon all the time to capture these chaps.

These things have been noted for a while, there are video observers that do this throughout meteor showers, to try and capture these events! Interesting!!!!
