Noble Friends,
On this date in 1178 five monks of Canterbury observed what may have
been an impact event on the Moon. This may have been the formation of
the Giordano Bruno crater, or it might have been another celestial
phenomena: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giordano_Bruno_(crater) . The
monks observations have survived and are quite interesting. What they
thought about the possible end of time isn't mentioned in the article,
but one might expect it scared them right out of their habits.
Yours Aye,
Lord Mungo Napier, That Crazy Scot
