On 1963 Nov 10/11 at UT 23:35-00:32 Kopal (Pic du Midi, France, 24" refractor) observed a TLP in Copernicus. Cameron says that the date maybe a misprint, should be 11/1/63? - sunset terminator at 25W and Copernicus in dark. The Cameron 1978 catalog ID=782 and weight=0. The ALPO/BAA weight=1.

On 1963 Nov 11 at 23:30UT Jacobs (Flagstaff, AZ, USA, 24" refractor, seeing=very good) observed a reddish-orange colour in Aristarchus crater and a sparkle in some areas. The Cameron 1978 catalog weight=3. The ALPO/BAA weight=3
On 1982 Oct 26 at UT 20:41-22:22 P. Madej (Huddersfield, UK, seeing=II and transparency=good) found that a blurring effect on the crater Yerkes had spread to Picard (~3.5 deg brightness). The effect was not detected in yellow light from the Wratten 15 filter, but a brightness change was picked up in red Wratten 25 light. J.D. Cook found dark surrounding Picard bright illumination. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=188 and weight=5. The ALPO/BAA weight=3.
Yerkes-Picard 1982 Oct 26 UT 20:41-22:22 and 21:31 Observed by Madej (Yorkshire, England, Seeing II, Transparency Good) and Cook (Frimley, England, Seeing=II, Transparency Good) "(Madej) could not focus Yerkes as well as could Peirce. By 2041 effect extended to Picard (~3.5 deg). In W15 filter not apparent, but albedo change was very marked in W25 red filter. (M. Cook) at 2222 noted faint orange around Yerkes E. Spurious color seen in other areas. Color around Yerkes intermittent. In blue filter it was still orange. (J. Cook) at 2131 noted S rim of moon was orange & seeing was such that it was fizzing. Around Yerkes only orange tint - tending intermittent" Cameron (2006) catalog ID #188 & weight=5 (very good). ALPO/BAA weight=1.
Aristarchus 1964 Sep 22 UT 02:54-03:03 Observed by Bartlett (Baltimore, MD, USA, 4" refractor x240, S=5, T=5) "Bright blue- viol. gl. on NE rim & EWBS; dark viol. nimbus; S. floor 8deg br. rest of crater 7 deg. Red-brown, changed to coppery, to yellow- brown (Gilheany, et al. examined crater later, but did not detect any color in MOON BLINK, so red-brown must have disappeared." NASA catalog ID #851, NASA catalog weight=4. ALPO/BAA weight=3.
Kunowsky 1964 Sep 22 UT 03:25-04:30 Observed by Gilheany, Hall, and Johnson (Port Tobacco, MD, USA, 16" reflector, Seeing=good) "Red area detected by Trident's MOON BLINK (MB) device, (Aris. normal)." NASA catalog weight= 5 (very high). NASA catalog ID #852.
E. of Pytheas in M. Imbrium 1970 Jun 19/20 UTC 23:54-00:23 Observed by Sendor-Mark (Szolnok, Hungary, 4" reflector x 200) "Bright spot nr. Timocharis (on E. Copernican ray?) decreased slowly for next 8min 19 sec. At 00:11:05 flared up. After 2nd decreasing, brightened again at 00:25:54 after which no variablity. Event was star-like < 3km. No events on 21st." NASA catalog weight=2 (poor). NASA catalog ID=#1262.
Alphonsus 1966 Sep 02 UTC 03:16-04:18 Observed by Whippey (Northolt, UK, 3" refractor) & Corralitos Observatory (Organ Pass, NM, USA, 24" reflector) "A series of weak glows, final flash at 0418h. Not confirmed by Corralitos MB" NASA catalog weight=3 (average). NASA catalog ID 971.
Plinius 1889 Sep 13 UTC 23:00? Observed by Thury (Geneva, Switzerland) NASA Catalog Event #265, NASA Weight=3 (Average) Event described as: "Unusual black spot with intensely white 4" border over CP. Normal aspect is 2 craters. #260 says that Gaudibert saw same thing in Sep. - confirmed". References: Nature 41, 183, 1890 (April). The ALPO/BAA weight=1, this is probably perfectly normal.
Plato 1982 Sep 07 UT 0330-0430. K.P. Marshall (Columbia, 12" reflector, seeing III) saw no craterlets on the floor of Plato, but what he considered unusual was an extremely bright short section of the north rim of Plato - far brighter than, any other part of the rim, and only slightly less bright than Mons Piton. ALPO/BAA weight=1.
Plato 1915 Apr 03 UTC 23:00? Observed by Markov (Russia) NASA catalog describes observation: "Appearance of bright spots that could even be seen in a 43mm (2-in) tube" 2" refractor used. NASA catalog weight=2. NASA catalog TLP ID NO. #350. ALPO/BAA weight=2.
Aristarchus 1978 Nov 20 UTC 03:00-05:00 Observed by Foley (Kent, UK, no spurious colour, Seeing Antoniadi II and transparency good.) - colouration seen: very bright violet spot on the north west interior. No brightness variations seen. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=44 and weight=. The ALPO/BAA weight=3. ALPO/BAA weight=2.
On 1979 Nov 09 at 10:30-11:05UT D. Louderback (South Bend, WA, USA, S= 4-2/10, T=P) detected a rapid fade in brightness of south and north sunlit slopes of Mons Piton. Then the western flank faded and became obscured in detail. The variations detected were approximately 5 sec in duration, where as seeing effects were of the order of 15 sec. Mons Pico and other mountains did not show a similar effect. "It was seen only in viol. filter tho once seemed blurred in red. No changes, dimming was like a veil of mist covering the mtn - swiftly, then dissipating as rapidly. Sketch. Phenomenon went on & off till 11:00UT. Cloud was cir. In viol & spreadover mtn in 2s. Saw 6 rapid, spinning motions within the cloud like an explosion or tornado seen from above. Blurring in red was more elongated. Motion across it was like a heat wave. Whole event lasted ~35m but disappeared in a few secs. Albedos 7.4 cp, 7.5 pt A, 7 pt B." Cameron 2005 catalog ID=75 and weight=4. ALPO/BAA weight=3.
