     On 1966 Apr 24 at 21:30UT R.Livsey (Scotland, 6" reflector at x275) 
     observed that Aristarchus was "fluorescent" in Earthshine. It is 
     uncertain whether the description of "fluorescent" should be involve 
     this observation being categorized as a TLP, however just for safety it 
     will be assigned an ALPO/BAA weight=1. This was a BAA Lunar Section 
     report.


2024-Mar-14 UT 18:39-20:29 Ill=25% Aristarchus observed by Miles_H on 1987-3-4

     On 1987 Mar 04 at UT 19:03-19:47 H. Miles (Cornwall, UK, 5" refractor, 
     x30, S=clear) found at 19:03 that Aristarchus was exceptionally bright 
     (even without blocking out the sunlit side of the Moon), being the most 
     easily seen crater on the Moon, and this was despite the sky not yet 
     being dark. The crater had faded by 19:20UT and at 19:47UT Earthshine 
     was no longer visible. CED brightness measurements were made and were 
     less than usual and the inside of the crater may have had a blue/gray 
     colour (unclear from the Cameron 2006 catalog description). The Cameron 
     2006 catalog ID=299 and the weight=2. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.

     On 1880 Nov 06 at UT 20:00 an unknown observer observed a TLP at an 
     unknown location on the Moon. The Cameron catalog has an entry for this 
     date and time but does not specify the location, the observer or what 
     was seen. The Cameron 1978 catalog ID=218 and the weight=0. The 
     ALPO/BAA weight=1.


2024-Mar-14 UT 20:36-21:26 Ill=26% W_Limb observed by Moseley_R on 1983-5-16

     W.limb 1983 May 16 UT 22:00-23:00 R.Moseley (Coventry,UK, 6" 
     reflector, x60) observed a faint but extensive brightening of 
     the W.limb, perhaps a little stronger at PA=80-90 deg. No other 
     features seen in Earthshine although Aristarchus suspected.
     ALPO/BAA weight=1.


2024-Mar-14 UT 21:10-21:26 Ill=26% Aristarchus observed by Taylor_TG on 1837-3-11

     1837Mar11 UT 15:27 (20:48 local time) T.G. Taylor (Madras,
     India) whilst observing a star being occulted, noticed a

2024-Mar-15 UT 18:59-20:44 Ill=35% Aristarchus observed by Madej_P on 1983-5-17

     On 1983 May 17 at UT20:13-20:40 P. Madej (Huddersfield, UK, x38 and 
     x63) found that Aristarchus was normal in appearance, but at 20:19 a 
     blood red disk was seen as bright as a 6th magnitude star. The colour 
     did not vary but the brightness changed from 4 to 8 over a 1.5-3min 
     period, on the south west wall. Foley (Kent, UK, 12" reflector)observed 
     Aristarchus at 22:10 and noted that it had the same rose-violet colour 
     as had been seen by him a day earlier. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=220 
     and the weight=0. The ALPO/BAA weight=3.


2024-Mar-15 UT 19:22-20:50 Ill=35% Hubble observed by Madej_P on 1984-11-28

     On 1984 Nov 28 at UT 17:30-18:05 P. Madej (Huddersfield, UK) found that 
     the crater Hubble had a cream white oval patch for short while that was 
     2x brighter than it's surroundsings. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=254 
     and weight=3. The ALPO/BAA weight=2. 


2024-Mar-15 UT 20:49-22:40 Ill=36% Daniell observed by Madej_P on 1979-4-2

     Daniell 1979 Apr 02 UT 21:45-22:14 Obseved by Madej (Huddersfield, UK, 
     158mm reflector, f/4.2, x36-110, seeing II-III) "Obscuration seen" BAA 
     Lunar Section Report. Cameron says that this was a bright white cloud 
     that covered three quarters of the crater. A yellow filter was used at 
     21:48, but the cloud was still white, albeit thinner (at x110). By 
     22:14UT the TLP was barely visible and again no colour seen. Buczynski 
     (Lancaster, UK, seeing = poor) saw spurious colour. Later (22:31-
     22:46UT?) Mellor obtained some photos, but these revealed no colour.
     The Cameron 1978 catalog ID=48 and the weight=3. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.

     On 1983 May 17 Foley (Kent, UK, 12" reflector)observed 
     Aristarchus at 22:10 and noted that it had the same rose-violet colour 
     as had been seen by him a day earlier. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=220 
     and the weight=0. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-15 UT 21:16-22:40 Ill=36% Aristarchus observed by Amery_GW on 1983-1-19

     On 1983 Jan 19 at UT 18:00-19:00 G. Amery (Reading, UK) discovered that 
     Aristarchus could not be seen in Earthshine, this was odd because less 
     prominent features could be seen. Other observers (Moore and Foley) 
     confirmed the very low brightness of the crater. The Cameron 2006 
     catalog ID=197 and the weight=2. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-15 UT 21:16-22:40 Ill=36% Messier observed by Amery_GW on 1983-1-19

     mag star-like point on the north east wall of Aristarchus crater. M. 
     Price (Camberley, UK) at 21:46 and 21:49. North (UK) detected flashes 
     from the central peak. Foley saw Aristarchus as a "translucent glow". 
     Moore, Pedler and Ratcliff could not find Aristarchus. Earlier though 
     Amery (Reading, UK) had found Aristarchus to be sharply defined.

     On 1888 Jul 16 at UT 05:35? Holden, at Lick observatory, CA, USA 
     saw a "Lunar Volcano, 1st magnitude star on the dark side. 
     Yellow light tinged with red from refractor's secondary spectrum 
     (facet glint? or peak catching sun before others? Hunt saw

2024-Mar-17 UT 22:18-23:37 Ill=57% Ptolemaeus observed by Sheperdson_P on 2020-2-1

     Ptolemaeus 2020 Feb 01 UT 19:40-19:50 P. Sheperdson (York, UK, 
     102mm Mak - BAA) saw an "ashen" sliver of bright light across 
     the floor. Images taken. This maybe normal appearance - though 
     observer re-observed in May and found the effect different in 
     that there was no "ashen" like effect. Visual sketches and 
     time lapse image sequences welcome. If doing visual work - try 
     using a polaroid filter and rotate it to see if that makes any 
     difference. For imaging work, please over-expose slightly to 
     bring out detail on the floor; you could also try colour 
     imaging of the floor as an interesting experiment - though for 
     comparison purposes image other terminator features exhibiting 
     shadow spires. ALPO/BAA weight=1.

2024-Mar-17 UT 22:49-00:33 Ill=58% Mons_Piton observed by Marshall_KP on 1983-5-20

     On 1983 May 20 at UT00:00-03:00 K. Marshall (Medellin, Columbia) 
     noted that Mons Piton was too bright near the terminator and was 
     surrounded by shadow. A sketch was made. The mountain appeared 
     segmented with one thin shadow line. The mountain looked like a 
     Mexican Sombrero hat. This appearance is normal. What was 
     abnormal was that Piton was brighter than Proclus, and only 
     slightly fainter than Censorinus. The CED brightness 
     measurements were normal Piton=3.6, Proclus=3.5 and Censorinus=
     3.7. Please check to see whether this is still the case. The

2024-Mar-20 UT 17:56-18:18 Ill=83% Plato observed by Brook_C on 2006-2-8 *

     C. Brook of Plymouth UK, using a 4" refractor x216, noticed at UT 20:10
     dark patches coming and going (in terms of visibility) on the floor of 
     Plato. Occasional views of the central cratelet (seen as a white spot) 
     were glimpsed. The dark patches seen lasted about 1-2 seconds before
     fading out during each visibility cycle. Teneriff Mountains were 
     checked but no sign of seeing effects that might explain the dark floor
     patches. By 20:26UT the dark patch effect was fading and by 20:31UT 
     floor detail was visible. Observations ceased at UT 20:34. Seeing 
     conditions were II and the Moon was at a high altitude. Other observers 
     were alerted but came on-line after the effect had finished. ALPO/BAA

     Deslandre - 1965 May 12 at UT 19:10 E. Penzel 
     (Rodewisch, East Germany) was taking a sequence of images 
     during the impact of the Soviet Lunik 5 (upper stage of the 
     carier rocket?). He  detected a tens of km scale elongated 
     cloud after the impact over a duration of 9.5 minutes. This 
     was near to Deslandre crater. However there are differences 
     between the images elsewhere on the Moon, possibly due to 
     different exposures or some other effects and it is not 100% 
     sure that what he detected was impact debris/cloud?. The 
     ALPO/BAA weight=1.

2024-Mar-23 UT 00:25-02:20 Ill=95% Archimedes observed by North_G on 1988-9-23

     On 1988 Sep 23 at 19:40-19:55 & 20:36-20:41 G. North (760mm 
     Coude Rrefractor, x250, Royal Grenwwich Observatory, 
     Herstmonceux, UK, seeing V, Transparency: Fair). 19:40-19:55 
     image very unsteady. All seems normal in other crtaters with 
     the exception of Arcimedes. Much of the rim seems indistinct 
     apart from a 1/4 length of the west rim. Strongly suspected 
     that this was due to a combination of seeing and illumination. 
     UT 20:02-20:06 - checked the area with a lower magnification 
     10" Astrographic Refractor - the crater seems more normal, so 
     suggesting that the theory was correct. 20:36-20:41 returned 
     to the 30" reflector, and the crater appeared similar to the 
     start of the session. This is almost certainly not a TLP, but 
     it would be helpful to have some images or sketches to check 
     this theory out. Weight=1.


2024-Mar-23 UT 00:26-02:14 Ill=95% Aristarchus observed by Cook_JD on 1985-5-2

     On 1985 May 02 at UT 20:20-20:38 J.D. Cook (Frimley, UK) noted at 20:20 
     found the south rim (and just outside) to be blurred in appearence and 
     there was also a hazy shadow inside the crater. M.C. Cook found a 
     "break in clarity in break on S wall". Miles (UK) also found the south 
     wall blurred in appearance and Foley (Kent, UK) noted that the area was 
     featureless and the 2 craters positions at 1 o'clock high up on the 
     inner wall were obscured", although just north of these was sharp 
     detail. Foley also recorded that the shadow on the east wall was 
     opaque"and that thye inside of Aristarchus was slate/blue in colour and 
     dull, however by 20:28 the crater had brightened by 0.4 steps on 
     Foley's CED device and the missing craterlets were visible again. Jean 
     (Canada, 4" refractor) observed a rose colour intermittently (UT 1948-
     20:58) - however Cameron suspects that this is chromatic aberation.

2024-Mar-24 UT 19:45-19:56 Ill=100% Mare_Tranquillitatis observed by Searle_G on 1978-9-16

     On 1978 Sep 16 at UT 18:28-18:57 G.Searle (Concord, Sydney, NSW, 
     Australia, 8" reflector, x100, x160, S=III) observed a bright star-like 
     point on the western (IAU) edge of Mare Tranquilitatis (x100) that 
     appeared unlike any other crater and a check of the location revealed 
     no suitably bright crater in that region (from a map?). Changed to a 
     higher power (x160) and it was still there, but not as conspicuous. 
     Observer thinks that this may have been due to the Moon's low altitiude 
     (16 deg) and the seeing. At 18:35 he compared it to the brilliant 
     crater Proclus and found the star-like point to be 75% of the 
     brightness of Proclus. Ken Wallace (Australia) had been taking photos 
     and observed the object at 17:37.5UT. The object gradually faded over 
     the next 15 minutes and by 18:52UT could only be seen in averted vision 
     at x100. By 18:57UT it was gone. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=38 and

     On 1982 Jan 09 at UT 18:46-21:42 M.Mobberley (UK) observed that Schmidt 
     was very bright compared to its surroundings during a total lunar 
     eclipse. Cameron 2006 catalog ID=162 and weight=5. ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-24 UT 20:43-21:49 Ill=100% W_Limb observed by Bouron on 1982-1-9

2024-Mar-24 UT 20:50-22:37 Ill=100% Aristarchus observed by Mobberley_M on 1984-12-7

     On 1984 Dec 07 at UT 19:30-23:30 M. Mobberley (St Edmunds, UK, 
     seeing=IV-V, transparency=good, spurious colour seen) found 2 
     bright pathces on the east rim on alternate sides of a bright region. 
     The band from the central 16km wide region was dark on the east side. 
     Foley (Kent, UK, 12"reflector, seeing=II-III) found Aristarchus to be 
     not as bright as normal, apart from the band that Mobberley found (1 
     hour later). The dark regions were a murky green colour (bright through 
     green, blue and yellow filters and dark through red and orange 
     filters). Cook (Frimley, UK, transparency=excellent, CCD camera used) 
     found a bright "bulge"on the eastern side. Apparently data suggests 
     that the band was brighter in red than in near IR light. Cook's 
     calibrated brightness measurements suggest that there was no change in 
     brightness over the crater with time. Two other bright points were 
     seen: one at the Cobra's Head and another half way between the east rim 
     of Aristarchus and passes Herodotus. Wratten 29 (deep red), Wratten 87 
     (near IR) and combined Wratten 29 and Wratten 87 were used. In the red 
     Wratten 29 filter the brightness falls at22:20 at Shroters valley and 
     then rises in the bright ray. They return to normal at 22:30UT. There 
     was however a lot of measurement noise from the brightness readings of 
     points B and D. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=256 and the weight=5. The 
     ALPO/BAA weight=3. 


2024-Mar-24 UT 21:21-22:29 Ill=100% NE_Limb observed by Unknown_Observer on 1963-12-30

     On 1963 Dec 30 at UT11:00 many observers reported seeing a red glow on 
     the North East (IAU?) limb of the Moon. This was also captured on a 
     photograph. Cameron suggests eclipse geometry as an explanation. Thye

     (maximum at 435nm) and between 480nm and 520nm (maximum near 505nm). 
     20-60% during eclipse at 50' from the centre of the umbra, during a 
     lunar eclipse. The cameron 1978 catalog ID=557 and weight=5. The 
     ALPO/BAA weight=4.


2024-Mar-24 UT 22:13-23:19 Ill=100% Mare_Fecunditatis observed by Emersen_G on 2000-1-21

     On 2000 Jan 21 UT04:40 G. Emersen (Golden, CO, USA, 30cm focal length 
     lens with Wratten 25 ref filter) took 43 CCD images of the eclipse of 
     the Moon and on one of them at 04:40UT (exposure 0.3 sec) a relatively 
     bright spot appeared in the southern part of Mare Fecunditatis. The 
     spot looks sharper than the rest of the Moon and so might be a cosmic 
     ray? CCD images taken from Washington D.C. by A.C. Cook at this time, 
     do not show this spot, however exposures were at intervals of 0.25 sec 
     and so might have missed this spot if it happened during image readout. 
     The ALPO/BAA weight=1.

     On 1848 at UT 21:00 Rankin and Chevallier (France?): Luminous pts. seen 
     during an eclipse. Cameron ays that year 1847 given by Middlehurst must 
     be wrong as age is 2.7 days for this date in 1847 and could not be 18-
     19 as in Middlehurst because eclipse is on the 19th at 21h (mid) in 
     1948.  aux. data here are for 1848. At 21:12 Forster (England) and 
     Bruges (France) observed rapid changes in red colour. The Cameron 1978 
     catalog ID=126 and 127 and the weight=5. The ALPO/BAA weight=3.
