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 .
ALPO Request: Compare the darkness of the floor in red and
blue filters e.g. (Wratten 25 and 44a). All visual reports,
sketches or colour images should be emailed to:
t o n y . c o o k @ a l p o - a s t r o n o m y . o r g
ALPO Request: On 2013 Apr 22 Paul Zellor noticed that the two
closely spaced NW dark bands in Aristarchus had some (non-blue)
color to them. Can we confirm his observation of natural colour
here? Ideally you should be using a telescope of 10" aperture, or
larger. Please send any high resolution color images, detailed
sketches, or visual descriptions to: a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .
BAA Request: How bright is the crater? Compare to other ray
craters e.g. Proclus, Tycho, Kepler, Cenosrinus, Copernicus.
It is possible to do this study using small aperture
telescopes with diameters of 2" (or larger) and it would work
best at low magnifiactions e.g. 30x. If taking images, try to
use short exposures to avoid saturating images of bright ray
craters. All visual brightness descriptions or images should
be sent to: a t c @ a b e r . a c . u k
ALPO Request: Please supply images, or sketches, of this area,
especially covering the area to the east. Any size scope can be
used for this study. All observations should be emailed to:
a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k
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 .
