Explosions on the Moon

here is one i never thought of.. while some people watch the skys for meteors other people watch the moon and take pics of the collisions.. i must remember to point my binoulars towards the moon next shower time..

On August 9th, during the Perseid meteor shower, a couple of amateur astronomers fixed their cameras on the Moon and watched meteoroids slam into the lunar surface. Silent explosions produced flashes of light visible a quarter of a million miles away on Earth. It was a good night for "lunar Perseids."
