BAA Request: Sketches or images needed of Toricelli B - of
sufficient resolution to reveal shadow. All observations,
including sketches or images shouild be emailed to:
a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .
BAA Request: Cyrillus. There is a small white craterlet just
north of the three central peaks. We are interested to receive
high resolution images of this in order to find out at what
selenographic colongitude, in the lunar evening, that it loses
it's white spot appearence. Please use scopes largher than 6
inches in diameter.
Please email these to: a t c @ a b e r . a c . u k
BAA Request: On 2013 Aug 26 Peter Grego observed a dark patch
just east of Jansen D. He had not seen this before, therefore it
is important to repeat this observation under simuilar
illumination conditions. It maybe a buried crater? Ideally
suited to scopes of aperture 8" or larger. Please send
any high resolution images, detailed scetches, or
visual descriptions to: a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .

"Jewelled Handle": in Montes Jura - this is a Clair-Obscur effect. Its
an illuminated arc. Clair-Obscur have no scientific importance and are
just tricks of the light that make us think we see something like a
letter of the alphabet or a shape or face. Clair-Obscur effects are
scientifically pointless to observe. However, if you want to be
thrilled, or obtain an image to impress someone then give them a go.
If you do observe, or image this, by all means send your observation
into ALPO or the BAA, but we probably won't publish, but will
nevertheless retain in our archives, just in case features elsewhere
in the image are of interest to future researchers.

Apollo 14: This is what the lunar surface would have looked like
when Apollo 14 blasted off from the Moon. Aim for the area
north of Fra Mauro. The illumination and the shadows are
exactly the same. There is no scientific value in imaging
this, but from the nostalgic point of view it might be interesting
to observe. Feel free to send your observation in to the BAA or
ALPO and we will put it in our archives, but as we have
a lot of these images already, we may not publish it, unless it is
exceptionally high in resolution. Minimum diameter scope to use
would be 20cm, but larger apertures are preferred:
