I went out on the deck tonight for two hours and recorded 4 Lunar II targets. Tycho at Lunar sunrise, Crater Stadius and Stadius catanae, crater Mosting A and crater Davy Y. Tycho was very dramatic, its' central peak had just come into full sun, the eastern third of the crater floor was still in shadow. Stadius is a "submerged" or flooded crater between Eratothsenes and Copernicus and the catanae is a string of interesting little craters extending north from the NW corner of Stadius. Other craters have catanae and these must be a series or strings of meteors that travel along in space and when they hit a larger body they leave a long trail of hits. They are pretty cool and I really hadn't paid much attention to them until I took these Lunar observing lists on.
Mosting A and Davy Y are not real exciting. In fact Davy Y is in the Lunar 100, I think. Only four to go to wrap Lunar II up. I should get one more tomorrow night.
Very glad to get out, but it wasn't the best night. The dew was appalling. Still, it was very enjoyable and the trip home can't get any shorter!
