Hi Elton: In 1178 Gervase of Canterbury recorded the following: There was a bright New Moon, and as usual in that phase its horns were tilted towards the East. Suddenly, the upper horn split in two. From the midpoint of the division, a flaming torch sprang up, spewing out fire, hot coals, sparks. Sagan, Carl "Cosmos" New York Ballantine Books page 69 1985 Mulholland, J. D. and Calame, O.
