-Waxing Crescent 43% full (6 days old)
-Condition Clear
8 Theophilus, Cyrillus, Catharina - Crater sequence illustrating stages
of degradation.
11 May-Very easy to spot chain of craters
90 Armstrong, Aldrin, Collins - Small craters near the Apollo 11
landing site (small craters cannot be seen)
11 May-Apollo 11 landed near Armstrong crater.
Try to spot the two craters, Ritter B & C (above Ritter), both can be
seen in a 50mm refractor if you look carefully as they are only 14km
wide.
15 May-Correction!! Apollo 11 landed nearer to Collins.
Will not be adding this item to the 100 Object List as the
small craters (3km wide!) couldn't be spotted with my
50mm scope.
