A moment when listening to Explosions in the Sky where everything for those few minutes is perfect and nothing else matters. Only that room and that moment is what it is important, not the past nor the future.
One does not realize an Explosions Moment is taking place while it is occuring. They will only come to see that it took place after it has finished happening.
Most explosions moments take place when one is high or intoxicated or about to become high or intoxicated. Explosions moments work best when one is high for it is most likely to occur at that time. This is because everyone is all riled up when they are high, and they will come to this moment where everything settles down, and if Explosions in the Sky happens to be playing then
BAM!
You've got an Explosions Moment.
"Hey Dan?"

"Whoa. Was that an explosions moment?!"
"OH SHIT BITCH, IT WAS!"

The dawning realisation that you don't know what's going on in any given situation. Line from the 1980s Ultravox song 'Vienna':
Oh Vienna, this means nothing to me.
During the Q&A a professor asked an obscure question and as he was talking I was having a total Vienna moment.

You have an idea, you 'put it out there' for the world to hear or see or read on the internet, proud that you have thought of something that no one else has noticed before, you're sharp, you're tuned in and you wait for the adoration of the masses when they asses your idea and say 'wow.. you're right... that's amazing!'
...... but sadly what has actually happened is you have said something incredibly dumb, and someone is just about to point it out to you very publicly, THIS is you Ambiwlans Moment.
See the word 'Ambiwlans' for the first Ambiwlans Moment from the legendary JamesTigerWoods

Con - Nice ambiwlans moment Steve!
