2025-May-06 UT 17:29-21:20 Ill=71% 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-May-07 UT 19:59-20:46 Ill=80% 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-May-10 UT 17:34-18:06 Ill=97% Briggs

     BAA Request: On 2010 Apr 27 Peter Grego noticed a craterlet 
     just to the east of Briggs (this is normal), but also an E-W 
     trending lineament or wrinkle ridge that does not show up on 
     NASA LAC charts - it is this we wish to confirm by re-
     observing under similar seleonographic colongitudes. An 8" or 
     larger telecope is required, Please send any high resolution 
     images, detailed sketches, or visual descriptions to: 
     a t c @ a b e r . a c. u k .


2025-May-15 UT 21:30-00:49 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
