would that be 25th of June in the New Style calendar? User:y23


This is an interesting article(ette), but it doesn't explain the name. Was Giordano Bruno one of the monks, or someone else? Finlay McWalter 22:02, 28 Sep 2003 (UTC)

ah, User:Michael Hardy fix it - thanks! Finlay McWalter 08:08, 29 Sep 2003 (UTC)


Is there any evidence of the crater's age besides the observations of June 18, 1178? In other words, if we ignore that account is there any way to estimate when the impact occurred?

The spectacular meteor shower Paul Withers describes would have occurred regardless of whether anyone was looking at the moon when the meteor hit. Presumably, had this happened after humans started keeping records, this shower would have been recorded somewhere. The fact that it wasn't (or at least that we have found no such records) suggests that the crater is at least 4,000 years old. Is such an age consistent with observations?
