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.

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: 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 .
