I look at the moon a lot. Clear California sky right now. Under the right side eye of the moon as you look at it. On the right edge, there is an unusually bright spot that seems to protrude outwards Does anyone else see this? If you know what it is, please let me know. I have never noticed this before.

Nope, really cloudy here. Exactly what does it look like?

saw two ufo's earlier looking at the moon but not the phenomenon you mention

Well, I am not talking about other planets. Just an unusually bright spot on the (as you are looking) right side. It's been there all day. seems to be protruding. I am well knowledged with star charts. This appears to be coming from the moon surface.

Just curious.

Oh Oh I know ! It's that monolith thing from 2001.

Ya, that's probably it, that's all. I wasn't looking through a telescope. More than likely, I just need a new prescription for my glasses. My nephew saw it as well though. It kind of looked like a plume shooting out. OH well, case solved more than likely. Actually, I don't think there was even a case. I need a beer. Well, another one. Or two. Or three. Or four. Or five. Or 18 or......

That was most likely a satellite or aircraft unless it made any highly unusual movements or speed changes.
