While I was digging around for how long it took Apollo 11 to get from
lift-off to Lunar orbit, I ran across a description of Neil Armstrong
viewing a Transit Lunar Phenomena (TLP) near the crater Aristarchus that
was originally spotted and confirmed by Earthly observers.
What ever became of this? Was it something real, or just "seeing what
you want to see" on Armstrong's part?
More of the electrostaticly levitated moon dust, like in Alphonsus?
Harrison Schmitt on Apollo 17 was supposed to have seen a flash in
Grimaldi crater also, although in that case it was thought to possibly
be a cosmic ray flash in his eyeball.
