     On 1983 May 15 at UT21:30-22:30 M.C. Cook and J.D. Cook (Frimley, UK) 
     could clearly see Aristarchus in Earthshine, whereas earlier that night 
     P.W. Foley (Kent, UK) could not see the crater although other features 
     were cisible. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=215 and the weight=2. The 
     ALPO/BAA weight=1.


2024-Mar-13 UT 21:16-21:28 Ill=17% Aristarchus observed by Miles_H on 1987-3-3 *

     On 1987 May 03 at UT 19:00-19:30 H. Miles (Cornwall, UK, 5" refractor, 
     x30) found the Earthshine to be both pink and bright with prominent 
     features clearly visible. A "brilliant" star-like point was seen in 
     Aristarchus crater. There was another, albeit less bright spot near 
     Darney-Agatharides. Spots pesisted despite various tests. Foley also 
     confirmed that the Moon looked pink to him as well. The Cameron 2006 
     catalog ID=298 and weight=1. The ALPO/BAA weight=1.


2024-Mar-13 UT 21:16-21:28 Ill=17% Darney observed by Miles_H on 1987-3-3 *

     x30) found the Earthshine to be both pink and bright with prominent 
     features clearly visible. A bright spot was seen near Darney-
     Agatharides. An even more "brilliant" star-like point was seen in 
     Aristarchus crater. Spots pesisted despite various tests. Foley also 
     confirmed that the Moon looked pink to him as well. The Cameron 2006 
     catalog ID=298 and weight=1. The ALPO/BAA weight=1.


2024-Mar-13 UT 21:16-21:52 Ill=17% Grimaldi observed by Darling_D on 1991-12-9

     On 1991 Dec 09 at UT 22:50 D. Darling (Sun Praire, WI, USA, 3" 
     refractor, x36) witnessed a flash in Grimaldi crater. Cameron comments 
     that others had seen a flash there earlier, and there was a meteor 
     swarm. Fritschel (madison, WI, USA, naked eye observing) detected 3 
     flashes in Grimaldi and also at the western limb of the Moon. D. Weier 
     (Sun Praire, WI, USA, 3" refractor, x36) was also observing. The 
     Cameron 2006 catalog ID=436 and the weight=5. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-13 UT 21:16-22:55 Ill=17% Grimaldi observed by Darling_D on 1991-12-9

     On 1991 Dec 09/10 at UT 23:53-00:12 D. Darling (Sun Praire, WI, USA, 
     3" refractor, x36) witnessed a flash in Grimaldi crater. Cameron 
     comments that others had seen a flash there earlier, and there was a 
     meteor swarm. Fritschel (madison, WI, USA, naked eye observing) 
     detected 3 flashes in Grimaldi and also at the western limb of the 
     Moon. D. Weier (Sun Praire, WI, USA, 3"refractor, x36) was also 
     observing. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=436 and the weight=5. The 
     ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-13 UT 21:39-23:28 Ill=17% Earthshine observed by Heath_AW on 2010-12-9

     On 2010 Dec 09 at UT 17:00 A. Heath (Long Eaton, UK) whilst 
     observing the Earthsine with 10x50 binoucluars, noticed some 
     coloured bands on the night side. The NW sector of Eartshine, 
     closest the limb was a normal dull brown, there was a whitish 
     fringe on this going from the N to the SE, followed by a thicker 
     bluish fringe. The rest of the Earthshine beyond, until reaching 
     the illuminated crescent was black. The two coloured fringes 
     curved slightly. Local temperature 38F and some broken cloud 
     present. Thickening cloud prevented further observations. The 
     observer suspects that it could have been caused by the weather 
     conditions, but could also have been due to a cataract starting 
     to form in his observing eye. This is unlikely to be a TLP due 
     to the above observer suggested reasons, and anyway it would 
     have to have been an unbelievably large phenomena to cover such 
     a large part of the Moon. However it is worth checking to see if 
     anybody else was observing at the time. ALPO/BAA weight=0.


2024-Mar-13 UT 22:12-00:03 Ill=18% Earthshine: sporadic meteors

2024-Mar-14 UT 21:19-21:52 Ill=26% Aristarchus observed by Taylor_TG on 1837-3-11

     1837Mar11 UT 15:27 (20:48 local time) T.G. Taylor (Madras,
     India) whilst observing a star being occulted, noticed a 
     6th magnitude nebulous spot where Aristarchus should be. Had 
     never seen anything quite as bright as this on previous 
     occasions (except the day before). ALPO/BAA weight=2. 


2024-Mar-14 UT 21:19-22:22 Ill=26% W_Limb observed by Moseley_R on 1983-5-16

     W.limb 1983 May 16 UT 22:00-23:00 R.Moseley (Coventry,UK, 6" 
     reflector, x60) observed a faint but extensive brightening of 
     the W.limb, perhaps a little stronger at PA=80-90 deg. No other 
     features seen in Earthshine although Aristarchus suspected.

2024-Mar-15 UT 01:11-01:39 Ill=28% Aristarchus observed by Holmes_D on 1989-2-10

     On 1989 Feb 10 at UT 18:15-18:40 Holmes and Wooler (Lancashire, 
     UK, 22cm Newtonian, x155) found Aristarchus to be bright, but so 
     too was Prinz. However in a 2nd observing session at 21:05-21:10 
     an area near crater both regions werestill visible but fainter. 
     The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=350 and weight=3. The ALPO/BAA 
     weight=1.


2024-Mar-15 UT 01:14-01:39 Ill=28% Lacus_Somniorum observed by Arsyukhin on 1982-5-27

     On 1982 May 27 at UT 17:05-17:35 E.V. Arsyukhin (Moscow, Russia, 3"
     reflector) found Lacus Sominorum was very bright, misty and the colour 
     varied. It was back to normal on the 28th and abnormal on 29-31st. - 
     had a dark spot in the middle for about 30 min. The Cameron 2006 
     catalog ID=169 and weight=3. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.

2024-Mar-15 UT 21:22-22:44 Ill=37% Daniell observed by Madej_P on 1979-4-2

     Daniell 1979 Apr 02 UT 21:45-22:14 Obseved by Madej (Huddersfield, UK, 
     158mm reflector, f/4.2, x36-110, seeing II-III) "Obscuration seen" BAA 
     Lunar Section Report. Cameron says that this was a bright white cloud 
     that covered three quarters of the crater. A yellow filter was used at 
     21:48, but the cloud was still white, albeit thinner (at x110). By 
     22:14UT the TLP was barely visible and again no colour seen. Buczynski 
     (Lancaster, UK, seeing = poor) saw spurious colour. Later (22:31-
     22:46UT?) Mellor obtained some photos, but these revealed no colour.
     The Cameron 1978 catalog ID=48 and the weight=3. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-15 UT 21:22-23:11 Ill=37% Aristarchus observed by Amery_GW on 1983-1-19

     On 1983 Jan 19 at UT 18:00-19:00 G. Amery (Reading, UK) discovered that 
     Aristarchus could not be seen in Earthshine, this was odd because less 
     prominent features could be seen. Other observers (Moore and Foley) 
     confirmed the very low brightness of the crater. The Cameron 2006 
     catalog ID=197 and the weight=2. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-15 UT 21:22-22:36 Ill=37% Aristarchus observed by Foley_PW on 1983-5-17

     On 1983 May 17 Foley (Kent, UK, 12" reflector)observed 
     Aristarchus at 22:10 and noted that it had the same rose-violet colour 
     as had been seen by him a day earlier. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=220 
     and the weight=0. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-15 UT 21:22-23:11 Ill=37% Messier observed by Amery_GW on 1983-1-19

     On 1983 Jan 19 at UT 18:00-19:00 G.W. Amery (Reading, UK) found that 
     Messier was difficult to define. The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=197 and 
     the weight=2. The ALPO/BAA weight=1.


2024-Mar-15 UT 22:55-00:09 Ill=37% Theophilus observed by Firsoff on 1955-6-25

     Theophilus 1955 Jun 25 UTC 20:30 Observed by Firsoff (Somerset, UK, 
     6.5" reflector, x240) "Blue mist. Both c.p. & ENE (IAU?) ridge appear 
     misty, slightly blueish & milky -- renders effect perfectly. Absent 
     next nite". NASA catalog weight= 4 (high). NASA catalog ID #596.


2024-Mar-15 UT 23:52-01:46 Ill=37% Proclus observed by Cook_MC on 1983-1-19

     Proclus 1983 Jan 19 UT 20:36-21:00 Observed by Cook (Frimley, UK,

2024-Mar-16 UT 01:52-03:04 Ill=38% Aristarchus observed by Miles_H on 1985-4-25

     On 1985 Apr 25 at UT 21:34-22:04 H. Miles (England) observed 
     Aristarchus within Earthshine. Foley (Kent, UK, 12" reflector) had 
     observed it one hour prior to Miles and found it to be both dull and 
     blue - with a bright patch west of the crater on Aristarchus Upsilon 
     Mountain. At 21:45UT 6 star-like flashes seen on the floor. They 
     occurred again a few minutes later and repeated at 22:04UT.By 21:45UT 
     the bright patch had gone though. Smith (England) had also apparently 
     seen the flashes and a further glow, albeit more north of the one seen 
     by Foley. Miles confirmed Smith's glow north of Aristarchus. 
     Peters did not see much, indeed found Aristarchus to be quite 
     faint (2130-2141). The Cameron 2006 catalog ID=264 and the 
     weight=3. The ALPO/BAA weight=2. 


2024-Mar-16 UT 01:52-03:04 Ill=38% Torricelli_B observed by Cook_MC on 1985-4-25

     Curious lack of detail, but this may have been related to
     the seeing. Of greater interest though was a dark blue
     splodge where the crater should have been. Shadow seen through
     this splodge, but no crater rim seen.


2024-Mar-16 UT 02:55-03:04 Ill=39% Aristarchus observed by Cook_JD on 1981-3-11

     A faint white pinpoint flash seen and also in the same position
     a whitish glow around the crater. No futher flashes seen after the
     first one. From UT2117-2130 the glow was still visible but faded
     making it more difficult to locate. When Foley observed he found 
     Aristarchus not very visible in Earthshine, despite Plato, Grimaldi,
     and several other features being visible. Both observers used
     12" reflectors. Cameron's 2006 catalog Extension ID=124 and 
     weight=0. ALPO/BAA weight=3.

     ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-16 UT 22:03-23:59 Ill=47% Aristarchus observed by North_G on 2000-2-11

     On 2000 Feb 11 at UT19:00 G. North (Norfolk, UK) telephoned TLP 
     coordinator, Patrick Moore, to report a possible colour anomaly in 
     Aristarchus. Moore had poor conditions in Selsey (UK) and saw nothing 
     unusual. However by this time North was reporting that, the colour was 
     fading. Two other BAA members were alerted, but were clouded out. The 
     ALPO/BAA weight=3. 


2024-Mar-16 UT 22:06-23:08 Ill=47% Menelaus observed by Darnella on 1968-4-4

     Webb (England, using a fluid achromat) saw brilliant minute spots and 
     streaks in Mare Crisium dotting its surface. This was seen near first 
     quarter. Cameron states that Schroter, Betr?, Madler, Slack and Ingall 
     had all seen it this way at times. Cameron 1978 catalog iD=111 and 
     weight=3. ALPO/BAA weight=2.

2024-Mar-17 UT 00:21-02:09 Ill=48% Aristarchus observed by Madej_P on 1985-4-26

     Aristarchus appeared to glow in Earthshine with a faint 
     green luminescence that moved from side to side. A bright
     blue central spot was also seen. The green colour was detected
     in two seperate eyepieces.  Observation made from England.

     ALPO/BAA weight=2.


2024-Mar-17 UT 02:21-04:09 Ill=49% Aristarchus observed by Johnson_G on 1985-4-26

     G Johnson of Swanton, MD, USA used a 2" refractor at f/12.
     Aristachus revealed as a red spot on a photo of the Moon. This
     was similar to another photo obtained on 1988 Apr 21st. Frame (with 3
     exposures present)reveals a dim star like point near Campanus on 
     exposure 1. Expsoure 2 shows it a little east on the Earth-lit 
     part. Exposure 3 shows it off the south-east limb. Apparently 20
     minutes later took 2 exposures and frame 18 was a double. The
     second exposure revealed an object farther from the limb but the
     first exposure does not show the object. The two high power exposures 
     do not show it. Cameron could not see the spots that Johson describes
     on his slides, but did see several spots (defects?) on the 
     8 and 12 second exposures near Hevelius and also on the 20 second
     exposure near to Hecataeus only. BAA members observed star like 
     flashes a few hours earlier - near Aristarchus. One BAA member, Madej, 
     had seen a green glow in Arisarchus in two places in two eyepieces.

2024-Mar-17 UT 22:18-23:37 Ill=58% Ptolemaeus observed by Sheperdson_P on 2020-2-1

     Ptolemaeus 2020 Feb 01 UT 19:40-19:50 P. Sheperdson (York, UK, 
     102mm Mak - BAA) saw an "ashen" sliver of bright light across 
     the floor. Images taken. This maybe normal appearance - though 
     observer re-observed in May and found the effect different in 
     that there was no "ashen" like effect. Visual sketches and 
     time lapse image sequences welcome. If doing visual work - try 
     using a polaroid filter and rotate it to see if that makes any 
     difference. For imaging work, please over-expose slightly to 
     bring out detail on the floor; you could also try colour 
     imaging of the floor as an interesting experiment - though for 
     comparison purposes image other terminator features exhibiting 
     shadow spires. ALPO/BAA weight=1.

2024-Mar-17 UT 22:49-00:33 Ill=58% Mons_Piton observed by Marshall_KP on 1983-5-20

     On 1983 May 20 at UT00:00-03:00 K. Marshall (Medellin, Columbia) 
     noted that Mons Piton was too bright near the terminator and was 
     surrounded by shadow. A sketch was made. The mountain appeared 
     segmented with one thin shadow line. The mountain looked like a 
     Mexican Sombrero hat. This appearance is normal. What was 
     abnormal was that Piton was brighter than Proclus, and only 
     slightly fainter than Censorinus. The CED brightness 
     measurements were normal Piton=3.6, Proclus=3.5 and Censorinus=
     3.7. Please check to see whether this is still the case. The

2024-Mar-18 UT 02:24-04:12 Ill=59% Aristarchus observed by Mobberley_M on 1985-4-27

     Mobberley and Foley note that Aristarchus was very
     prominent in Earhshine. Little other detail seen
     in Earthshine other than the limb. The Cameron
     2006 extension catalog then says: "Confirm moving 
     side to side. Saw bright blue spot in center" however 
     it is unclear whether this refers to Aristarchus,
     or Torricelli-B - the latter was also undergoing a TLP
     at this time. Cameron 2006 extension catalog ID=267
     and weight=5 (confirmed?).

     On 1973 Dec 02 at UT 22:17:33 Barrett and Brick (New York, 3.5" Questar 
     freflector) observed an occultation of Kappa Aquari, a wide double 
     star, on the western limb. The star faded perceptably before 
     disappearing. Cameron says that the fact that the star was a double was 
     not an explanation - she says that there are many reports of similar 
     fades for single stars. The Cameron 1978 catalog ID=1384 and weight=4.

     On 1984 Dec 01 at UT 20:00 a British Astronomical Association Lunar 
     Section member (Southam, Warwickshire, UK) found no detail on the floor 
     of Autolycus, despite there being plenty of detail on the floor of 
     Aristillus crater. According to Foley, there should be some detail at 
     this stage of illumination. Grego reports that the observation was from 
     a Society for Popular Astronomy member and they described "a 
     homogeneous grey veil over the 20 km floor of the crater". The

     On 2001 Jun 29 at UT22:16-22:22 C. Brook (Plymouth, UK, 60mm refractor, 
     x120, no spurious colour seen, seeing I) observed that the central 
     peaks of Alphonsus looked bright at 22:16UT but had dimmed by 22:22UT. 
     The three dark patches on the floor of Alphonsus were clearly seen. The 
     ALPO/BAA weight=1.


2024-Mar-19 UT 02:13-05:33 Ill=69% Arzachel observed by Brook_C on 2001-6-29 *

     On 2001 Jun 29 at UT 22:16-22:20 C. Brook (Plymouth, UK, seeing 
     conditions very good, x120) reported that the central peak of Alphonsus 
     was brighter than the central peak of Arzachel (or was it the other way 
     around?). Cook observed 4 hours later from Washington DC, USA and found 
     that on CCD images that the central peak of Alphonsus was only slightly 
     less than that of Arzachel. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.

2024-Mar-19 UT 02:58-04:54 Ill=69% Tycho observed by Spellman_R on 1996-4-27

     1996 Apr 27 UTC 02:26-03:14 Observed by Spellman (Los Angeles, CA, USA)
     " 02:26 U.T. Sunrise on Tycho 3/4 of the crater was in shadow, 
     topmost section of the central peak was in sunlight. In white light 
     brightness of the central peak rivaled the brightness of the Eastern
     (sunlit) wall. No change was detected in red light, however in blue 
     light definite strong darkening was observed. Blink obtained when 
     viewing thru 25A and 38 filters. At 2:52 U.T. in the poor to fair 
     seeing the apparent size of the central peak in white and red light was 
     the same, in blue light the central peak in white and red light was the 
     same, in blue light the central peak size shrank to 1/2 white and red 
     size (and brightness). Also appearing sharper. Comparison was made also 
     with the central peak of Alphonsus, no changes were observed. The 
     significant part of the observation was the relative brightness of the 
     central peak to the sunlit rim in white and red light, they appeared 
     almost identical with the crater rim, being just slightly brighter. In 
     blue light the brightness of the central peak was reduced by at least 
     half while the rim brightness was not, (relative to one another). I 
     strongly believe that this was a real event. The shadow filled 
     portion of Tycho was examined for any abnormalities but none 
     were observed. Observations were ended shortly after 3:14 U.T. due to 
     clouds. I also conducted about 20 Moon blink observations during this 
     observing run and got the same strong reaction each time." ALPO/BAA

     Plato 1982 Jun 02 UT 22:00. Mobberley could not see the 
     central craterlet on the floor of Plato tonight. Foley notes 
     that he could only just see the central craterlet on nights of 
     2-5th Jun and it was of reduced in brightness from normal. 
     North reported that the floor seemed nearly black, but 
     brighter in a green filter (x144 magnification used). All

     reflector, x159, S=7/10) observed similar light conditions to 1989 Jul 
     15. At 02:00 he observed pink on the south west wall of Aristarchus 
     crater. At 01:24UT the Aristarchus ray was yellowish, however the 
     entire Moon had a grey-yellow tinge of colour. Chromatic aberation was 
     observed at 01:56UT. By comparison Gassendi was checked and had no 
     colour. At 02:10 the crater wall of Aristarchus was unusual and was 
     quite different in appearance to rims of other craters. The cameron

2024-Mar-22 UT 01:28-03:14 Ill=91% Deslandres observed by Penzel_E on 1965-5-12

     Deslandre - 1965 May 12 at UT 19:10 E. Penzel 
     (Rodewisch, East Germany) was taking a sequence of images 
     during the impact of the Soviet Lunik 5 (upper stage of the 
     carier rocket?). He  detected a tens of km scale elongated 
     cloud after the impact over a duration of 9.5 minutes. This 
     was near to Deslandre crater. However there are differences 
     between the images elsewhere on the Moon, possibly due to 
     different exposures or some other effects and it is not 100% 
     sure that what he detected was impact debris/cloud?. The 
     ALPO/BAA weight=1.

2024-Mar-22 UT 03:55-05:45 Ill=91% Herodotus observed by Haas_W on 2003-5-13

     On 2003 May 13 at UT06:40-07:26 W. Haas (Las Cruces, NM, USA, 12.5" 
     reflector, x321 and x202, S=2, T=3.5) suspected (06:40-06:55UT) that he 
     saw an oval bright feature (intensity 5.5) near the centre of the floor 
     of Herodotus crater indenting into the shadow - however the seeing was 
     none too good, so it is more of a suspicion than a definite sighting. 
     At 07:14-07:26UT he re-examined the region (x202 and x321, S=1-2 and T=
     3.5) and had better glimpses that conformed his initial suspicions of 
     there being an oval indentation bright spot (now intensity 6) into the 
     shadow in the centre of the floor. Of course Herodotus does not have a 
     central peak! There was also a very bright spot on the NW> sunlit rim 
     of Herodotus crater. The ALPO/BAA weight=2.

     On 1965 May 12 at UT 22:20 H. Miles (UK) found a possible 
     obscuration in Bailly crater. Most of the region was as sharp as 
     normal, but the central area was greyish and blurred. Although 
     the observer concerned considered themselves a non-experienced 
     observer, another BAA Lunar Section observer saw the same 
     effect. ALPO/BAA weight=2.

     Aristarchus Area 2004 Nov 22 UT 04:58-05:49 Observed by Gray 
     (Winemucca, NV, USA, 152mm f/9 refractor, seeing 4-5, trasparency 4-5, 
     x114, x228) "Blinked Herodotus with Wratten filters Blue 38A and Red 
     25. The illuminated west crater wall stood out brilliantly in blue 
     light, much more so than in white light. This was true also of 
     Aristarchus. Red light did not increase contrasts in Herodotus any more 
     than they were in white light. Shadows in Herodotus appeared as black 
     as the night west of the terminator and remained that way throughout 
     the observing period. No TLP seen in Herodotus tonight. A possible TLP 
     was seen to the west of Herodotus near the terminus of Schroters 
     Valley. It was noted at the beginning of the observing period that 
     there were four very bright spots of light, one near the end of 
     Schroters Valley, the other three grouped together a little farther 
     north. Although not far from the terminator they were definitely east 
     of it. It was noted that all of them nearly vanished in the Blue 38A 
     filter while Aristarchus and the rim of Herodotus gleamed brilliantly. 
     At 5:19UT it was noted that the most brilliant of the four lights, the 
     one near the terminus of Schroters Valley, had faded almost to 
     invisibility in white light. When first seen it had been brighter than 
     Aristarchus. It remained very dim after this through the remainder of 
     the observing period, and was unchanged at 7:35-7:49UT when I again 
     examined the area. The other three bright spots remained brilliant and 
     unchanged."

2024-Mar-23 UT 00:25-02:20 Ill=96% Archimedes observed by North_G on 1988-9-23

     On 1988 Sep 23 at 19:40-19:55 & 20:36-20:41 G. North (760mm 
     Coude Rrefractor, x250, Royal Grenwwich Observatory, 
     Herstmonceux, UK, seeing V, Transparency: Fair). 19:40-19:55 
     image very unsteady. All seems normal in other crtaters with 
     the exception of Arcimedes. Much of the rim seems indistinct 
     apart from a 1/4 length of the west rim. Strongly suspected 
     that this was due to a combination of seeing and illumination. 
     UT 20:02-20:06 - checked the area with a lower magnification 
     10" Astrographic Refractor - the crater seems more normal, so 
     suggesting that the theory was correct. 20:36-20:41 returned 
     to the 30" reflector, and the crater appeared similar to the 
     start of the session. This is almost certainly not a TLP, but 
     it would be helpful to have some images or sketches to check 
     this theory out. Weight=1.


2024-Mar-23 UT 00:26-02:14 Ill=96% Aristarchus observed by Cook_JD on 1985-5-2

     On 1985 May 02 at UT 20:20-20:38 J.D. Cook (Frimley, UK) noted at 20:20 
     found the south rim (and just outside) to be blurred in appearence and 
     there was also a hazy shadow inside the crater. M.C. Cook found a 
     "break in clarity in break on S wall". Miles (UK) also found the south 
     wall blurred in appearance and Foley (Kent, UK) noted that the area was 
     featureless and the 2 craters positions at 1 o'clock high up on the 
     inner wall were obscured", although just north of these was sharp 
     detail. Foley also recorded that the shadow on the east wall was 
     opaque"and that thye inside of Aristarchus was slate/blue in colour and 
     dull, however by 20:28 the crater had brightened by 0.4 steps on 
     Foley's CED device and the missing craterlets were visible again. Jean 
     (Canada, 4" refractor) observed a rose colour intermittently (UT 1948-
     20:58) - however Cameron suspects that this is chromatic aberation.
