Ill is percentage illumination of the Moon


2026-Sep-04 UT 02:29-07:27 Ill=50% 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:

2026-Sep-29 UT 00:19-01:41 Ill=93% Torricelli_B

     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 .


2026-Sep-29 UT 07:25-09:11 Ill=92% Gutenberg

     BAA Request: Gutenberg Clefts. We are trying to replicate, 
     using modern day images, a sketch in Plate III in BAA The Moon 
     from published: 1950 Jun Vol 1, No. 1. Its for a sketch by 
     L.F. Ball from 1948 Dec 17. The clefts or rimae are outside 
     the crater to the W and NW. The original observer used a 10" 
     scope. Please send any images to: 
     a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .


2026-Sep-29 UT 23:14-03:55 Ill=87% 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
