TLPs are dimissed as being tricks of the eyes or mistakes resulting from poor observation because there is no physical proof of what they really are. But these TLPs are signs of this activity and show that the molten core of the moon may much bigger and closer to the surface. The moon is thought to have a very small molten core about 1500 kilometers below the surface, but it is too far down to cause any activity on the surface. It would have all dissapated a long time ago. With the idea that the moon is billions of years old, than the interior of the moon would no longer have any significant heat. by Don DeYoung, TJ volume 17(1) 2003 Conflict The idea of a young moon does not conflict with TLPs as an ancient moon would. Creationists believe the moon was created by God on the fourth day of creation as written in the account in Genesis 1. Then radioactive decay melted the moon's outside and inside, and after billions of years all the heat disapated. It's improbable that the pull of gravity from the matter would have been strong enough. There are other problems with this theory then just the existence of TLPs. Then the gravitational pull of the object brought all of the pieces together to form the moon. Then the pre-moon was bombarded by smaller planetesimals that orbiting the sun in the early solar system. This theory, says that the earth and moon formed at the same time from the same matter that was ejected from the collision. This is a plot of the days in the 29-day lunar month in which observations were recorded Origin theoryĪ popular theory for the origin of the moon is the collision theory, that two planetesimals were moving through the solar system and collide. There was no specific pattern the amount of events varied greatly with each day. This graph shows a 29 day period, in which the reports of transient phenomena were recorded. Since the 6th century, people have been reporting brief transient phenomena at this crater. The crater, Aristarchus is the most frequent of these. There are multiple "hot spots" where transient phenomena is often sighted. The haze resembles a gas cloud which was emitted from the craters central peak." The third shows signs of an actual eruption of fire, or luminous matter." Dollfus wrote of having seen "diffuse brightening near the center of the lunar crater Langrenus. It had the appearance of a red star." and later "I perceive three volcanoes. Herschel wrote "I perceived in the dark part of the moon a luminous spot. Some sightings of TLPs have been recorded by astronomers William Herschel, in 1783-1787, and Audouin Dollfus (of France), in 1992. No one has any physical proof of what TLPs truly are, but all the known information suggests that they must be some form of volcanic discharge. Astronomers can only go by secondhand observations when compiling the facts. People have been unable to study them thoroughly because they have probably ended by the time they are reported. These events are relatively small and last only a few hours. According to NASA, there have been 579 reported incidents since the 1600s. Since telescopes were invented, people have been sighting events of TLP.

Cannell, "0 to 4 comprise the seeing range for the majority of the time" for the Apollo lunar mapping work done with the 24-inch Clark refractor. According to USAF Lowell site director, William D. Magnification ~500X or ~21X per inch of aperture with zoom eyepiece providing ~430 to 1050X. NOTE: Baseline seeing was very poor (2) improving to better moments of 3-to-4 on USAF lunar seeing scale of 0-10. The solar illumination in this depiction is somewhat lower than that experienced by the observers on this night. Bridges noted she rendered the TLP with a great deal of input from Jim Greenacre and Ed Barr.
