Meteorite hit Moon at 61,000 kmph during Jan lunar eclipse: Study

Spanish astronomers have reported that a meteorite collided with the Moon at 61,000 kmph, making a 10-15 metres wide crater during the January 21 lunar eclipse. A bright flash visible to the naked eye was reported by amateur astronomers as the total phase began. The impact flash lasted 0.28 seconds and is the first ever filmed during a lunar eclipse.
