2025-Jul-01 UT 16:58-19:13 Ill=40% Earthshine: sporadic meteors

     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.
     Dates/UTs of observing runs, or detections of impacts, should be emailed to:
     ALPO - email: c u d n i k @ s b c g l o b a l . n e t

2025-Jul-04 UT 17:46-19:41 Ill=68% Tycho

     BAA Request: Can you see any sign of "greyness" inside the 
     shadow on the floor of Tycho? This is possibly due to 
     scattered light off of the illuminated walls of Tycho. Mimimum 
     sized aperture telescope to use should be an 8" reflector. Any 
     visual descriptions, sketches or slightly over exposed images 
     should be emailed to:
     a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k 


2025-Jul-05 UT 18:18-19:04 Ill=77% Posidonius

     ALPO Request: Any colour visible on the northern edge? Check 
     with filters if you are observing visually. Otherwise use 
     colour imaging.Please use a telescope of aperture 20cm or 
     larger. Any visual descriptions, sketches, or 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


2025-Jul-12 UT 01:02-01:31 Ill=98% Mons_Vinogradov

     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 


2025-Jul-13 UT 19:54-01:59 Ill=90% Cyrillus

     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


2025-Jul-15 UT 02:36-02:46 Ill=81% Jansen

     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 .

2025-Jul-31 UT 17:07-17:08 Ill=42% Maurolycus

     ALPO Request: On 2012 Feb 28 Raffaello Braga noted that only the 
     tip of the central peak was visible. Most of the crater was in 
     darkness - this was normal at this stage in illumination. When 
     viewed through a red filter, the central peak was visble, but 
     however when viewed through a blue filter it was invisible. 
     Please try to observe this crater visually with red and blue 
     filters, to see if you can replicate this effect? If so then 
     check for similar effects on other craters on the terminator. 
     Otherwise try to obtain some high resolution colour images. This 
     work is suitable for telescopes of 4" aperture or larger - if 
     you have a choice of a efractor or a reflector, please try the 
     refractor. Please send any observations you make to:
     a t c @ a b e r . a c . u k


2025-Jul-31 UT 18:19-18:28 Ill=42% Barrow

     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 .

     or faster, and capable of recording 9th or 10th magnitude stars in real time.
