BAA Request: Any colour seen along the E/SE rim and along the
southern edge of the SW ray? Any colour visible on other
craters? Please use a reflector of aperture 3" or larger. If you
do see any colour, please check it out with red and blue filters
to confirm it is not due to atmopsheric spectral dispersion or
chromatic aberation. Any visual descriptions, sketches, or color
images should be emailed to:

BAA Request: Two observers have reported colour on the rim
around this colongitude, once in 1938, and again in 2013. Please
take a look and report what you see, and where on the rim.
Please send any high resolution images, detailed sketches, or
visual descriptions to: a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .
These can only be observed using low-light level cameras running at 25 frames per sec,
or faster, and capable of recording 9th or 10th magnitude stars in real time.
Dates/UTs of observing runs, or detections of impacts, should be emailed to:

BAA Request: Can you see any sign of "greyness" inside the
shadow on the floor of Tycho? This is possibly due to
scattered light off of the illuminated walls of Tycho. Mimimum
sized aperture telescope to use should be an 8" reflector. Any
visual descriptions, sketches or slightly over exposed images
should be emailed to:

BAA Request: On 2012 Sep 24 E. Horner noticed a very strong red
colour around part of the sunlit inner rim of Copernicus,
sometimes a 1/4 and sometimes 1/2 around the interior. Quite
likely this was some form of atmospheric spectral dispersion -
though the observer checked for similar effects on other craters
but saw none. But to be sure we would like to obtain some colour
images or visual observations of this crater. The minimum sized
telescope to be used would ideally a 6" reflector. Low elevation
angles for the Moon are ideal as we want to try to replicate
this effect if it is indeed due to atmospheric spectral
dispersion. Please send any high resolution images, detailed
sketches, or visual descriptions
to: a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .
