If you are like me astronomy holds a fascination because it is so visual. I saw this and thought I would share it with you. Observers studying impacts on the moon during the total eclipse of the moon on in January 2019 saw a flash as a meteorite hit the surface of the moon.

The Royal Astronomical Society publishes in their Monthly Notices April 27, 2019, a new analysis by Spanish astronomers below:
A new analysis by Spanish astronomers says the space rock collided with the moon at 38,000 miles per hour (61,000 km/hour) excavating a crater 33-50 feet (10-15 meters) across.

Can you imagine 38,000 miles per hour?
Keep your feet on the ground but be sure and look up at the stars.
One of these days I hope to make it to a star party.
I have never really keen on astrology but when I saw this title, it captures my attention like "what isit all about?"
I am amazed by this video as much as I always wonder about sky and rainbow and cloud. :)
