According to the reading passage, it is stated that Transient lunar phenomena, which is called TLP and are reflected from the surface of the Moon, have been obesrved for centuries by astronomers and several theories have been proposed for the occurrence of them. The article presents some of those theories. However, the professor in the listening section challenges the assumptions made in the reading passage, offering a different perspective and refuting these assertions through the presentation of three key reasons.
Firstly, the reading contends that instead of being a genuine lunar phenomena, those flash lights are random observational errors, caused by telescopes. The professor, however, raises skepticism about this notion by explaining that if this claim was true, the places of lights should have been pretty random as well. He emphasizes that since TLP are detected from very specific locations, it is more likely to be caused by real events happening on the Moon.
Secondly, the article asserts that meteors strike the Moon continuously, and after exploding generate flash lights, which can account for incident of TLP. On the contrary, the lecturer counters this idea by saying that lights generated from meteor explosion last only for a second, but the TLP continues approximately for twenty minutes. According to the professor, a few number of those lights can originate from meteor blowing ups, and the remaining must have other reasons.
Finally, the reading posits that another explanation for this phenomenon may be the light emitted by lunar rocks when exposed to the heat by the Sun. The professor disputes this claim by elaborating that the emitted light from the lunar rocks are weaker than the light Moon reflects. Therefore, recognizing thermoluminescence against this light background would be very arduous.
