BAA Request: Take high resolution images of the area north of
Moltke to capture a view of what the lunar surface would have
looked like from Earth at the moment Neil Armstrong made the
first footprint on the lunar surface. Minimum diameter scope
20cm, larger apertures preferred:

BAA Request: On 1972 May 18 M.Burton (UK) saw a E-W light
streak across the floor of this crater and also that the east
side of the crater was very billiant. This is probably a
normal appearance for this stage in illumination, but we would
like to check this out. Minimum sized telescope to use is a
5". Please send any high resolution images, detailed sketches,
or visual descriptions to:
a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .
ALPO Request: On 2011 Dec 31 Raffaello Braga found the north rim
or Torricelli to be very bright at the start of the observing
session but dimmed considerably later. He was not sure on the
normal appearance of this crater, hence why it is really
imortant to establish this by re-observing under similar
illumination. Minimum telescope aperture required: 3", and try
to use a refractor if possible. Please send any high resolution
images, detailed scetches, or visual descriptions to:
a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .

BAA Request: On 2013 Feb 17 UAI observer: Giuseppe Macalli
observed visually an orange cloud form just to the west of
Picard crater, and then dissappear. The effect lasted about 1
minute. Obviously we are not likely to see whatever this was
(?) again under similar illumination, but just for the record
it would be useful to have a high resolution monochrome or
colour image of this area, at the requested observing
time.N.B. an image in the 2018 Jun LSC suggests that the date
given of 2013 Feb 17 may have been Feb 18? Please send any
high resolution images to: a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .
ALPO Request: Compare the crater in red and blue light - if
possible use Wratten 25 and Wratten 38A filters. Please
use a telescope of aperture 6 or larger (refractor if
possible) and at appromimately x250. Any visual descriptions,
sketches, or colour images should be emailed to:
