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
ALPO Request: Please examine the crater through red and blue filters e.g. Wratten 25 and 38A. Can y ou see both the NE and SE walls in the blue filter? Which is the brightest of the two walls and what does it best compare in brightness to elsewhere on the Moon? Can you see a thread like strip along the NW wall? How dark is the interior shadow and can you see a thread of light effect in this that was parallel to the illumnated eastern wall? The minimum sized telescope to use would by 6" aperture or larger (prefrably a refractor if you have one). Please send any detailed sketches or high resolution images 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

BAA Request: Can you see, or image, 4 points of light in the shadowed floor of the crater? How do these change in appearance over time? This is not a TLP but is still interesting to observe as it might look like a string of pearls effect. Please send any images, or sketches, to: a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k
