· 📍 Canterbury, England
On 18 June 1178, five monks from Canterbury (documented by Gervase of Canterbury) observed a dramatic apparition on the Moon: a flaring, fire, glowing embers and sparks. Mainstream explanation: meteorite impact (Giordano Bruno crater). Alternative interpretation in the context of the text: an earlier phase in which the boundaries between realities temporarily opened. The Vatican Library is said to contain similar reports from this era.
