▶ Your Answer :
The lecturer claims that the reading’s assertion is groundless. This
casts doubt on the reading’s claim that there are proofs that can explain the
cause of TLPs.
First, the lecturer asserts that clouds of lunar gas are not
responsible for TLPs. To be specific, the occurrence of the gases and TLPs have
no relation, even are just coincidence. Scientists don’t know how much gases
are in the lunar atmosphere, and only small amounts of gases are seen from
Earth. This contrasts the reading’s argument that the phenomena are caused by
clouds of lunar gas.
Second, the lecturer argues that there is no evidence that clouds of
dust cause TLPs. In order to be seen, dust should be very large, but it isn’t.
Also, there are little amounts of dust above the lunar landscape. This refutes
the reading’s insistence that clouds of dust floating above the lunar landscape
illuminate TLPs.
Lastly, the lecturer maintains that there are insufficient data to
consider solar radiation as a factor of TLPs. Through many observations,
scientists found that the periods of solar flares and those of TLPs sometimes
matched, but they didn’t match more often. Therefore, they seem not to have any
correlation. This rebuffs the reading’s point that solar radiation causes TLPs.
