Dawn with Bailly on Saturday night. Near the south pole of the moon is the western edge of one of the largest craters on the visible side. The 303-mile Bailly is an old but handsome revelation when the lighting is appropriate. In the picture, the sunlight has already reached the peaks of the western rampart while the bottom is still in the darkness of the night. https://lakeudenursa.fi/kuvitus/upload/2022/01/16/20220116222129-844f5adc.jpg

The moon was high in the southern sky and the weather was better than usual. As the sun set on the eastern edge, Langrenus 130km (left) and Petavius 177km (right) offered dramatically rugged views and plenty of detail. r https://lakeudenursa.fi/kuvitus/upload/2021/11/22/20211122162724-7c6baee8.jpg

Partial eclipse. I was late twice during this session. At the beginning 5 minutes when I forgot myself over the tuna bread and in the middle of course I stopped at the camera on just as the passenger plane rushed over the sun disk. (It's nothing #! #). Otherwise, the people also prefer Finns.

When I spot that Walter-Deslandres area, my focus is often on that fracture on the western edge of Walter. It appears as if part of the curb had detached from point A and moved to its current position at point B. Catchment area C is elevated from its surroundings and it would seem as if there were indications of an event at the bottom of Deslandres in area D as well. Probably it is just a remnant of the edge wall of the crater covered in Desavares lava. https://lakeudenursa.fi/kuvitus/picture.php?/1130/category/4

In connection with a great observation previously published by Jerry Jantunen, I am posting a picture I took at the same time. The mystical Ina can be admired mainly from the windows of the moon ship, but the bonga drive makes you hunt it with a telescope as well. The lighting was good for seeing the subject, but the weather was otherwise restless. The high position of the moon at the time of observation helped a little.

Rough mood with a terminator. Occasional calm moments provide small details to be seen such as craters less than a kilometer in size at the bottom of Stöfler. (Bottom left). The shape of Walter’s triangular base is accentuated in this shady lighting. (Top right). Walter has a diameter of 132 X 140km. In the picture, north is on the right.

On the south shore of Mare Nubium is the famous double-circle Hesiodus A. Apparently, the successive strikes of a collider broken into two parts have given birth to this special "double crater". the diameter is about 15km. The lighting was good, but the weather was not there for the observation of this rather small object.

Dawn on Copernicus. The first rays of the rising sun hit the eastern rampart of the crater. There is still icy darkness at the bottom. Three hours later, even the highest peaks of the western rampart pained in the light of the morning sun. Pictured in the middle is a slender flat Stadius and on the right Eratosthenes. Who is probably the peasant who first stands on that edge of Copernicus looking at the bottom of the crater, and when? Chesley Bonestell imagined the scene in the 50s in his painting. (Image found in Bonestell-Ley The Conquest of Space WSOY 1952). #Lunar100: 005

Eratosthenes and the Apennines The location of the moon high in the afternoon sky allowed the use of 3x Barlow. There was a lot of material. https://lakeudenursa.fi/kuvitus/picture.php?/1127/category/4 #Lunar100: 040

The nectar sea has solidified into a basalt valley. On the left is the crater trio Theophilus at the top, Cyrillus and Catharina. The diameter of all is about 100km. The northern rampart of Fracastorius on the southern edge of Nectarkis has disappeared into the floods of the Nectarchite.

Grimald's pool in full moon shadless lighting conditions. The dark flooded area in the middle is about 100km in diameter. In good conditions, it appears as a dark spot on the left (west) edge of the full moon, even with the naked eye. The light ring indicates the approximate location of the inner curb. Its diameter is about 170km. https://lakeudenursa.fi/kuvitus/picture.php?/1114/category/4

Reiner Gamma Mystical “Lunar Swirl” with Oceanus Procellarum. Mystical because its origin and birth process are still unclear. The powdery sugar-like light swirling patterns do not cast any shadows on the surrounding valley. Looks like the patterns are spray painted on the surface of the moon. Low-flying sonar has detected changes in the magnetic field in the area. Some theories assume that this anomaly affecting particle current movements in the solar wind interacts with lunar regolite dust. For millions of years, the dust has been forced by a magnetic field into now visible patterns. The cha...

The hydrogen rose Rosette flies midnight into the winter southern sky stage. This huge emission nebula can be found in the unicorn constellation. The distance of the fog is about 5,000 light-years. In the middle of it is an open array of hot stars that have blown a bubble into the surrounding hydrogen vapor. The cloud itself is 130 light-years in diameter. It contains a wealth of interesting structures and star-bearing regions.

Squirts under Orion's belt. A little silly cropping, but let's act as a reference if someone wants to check where the comet is.

Less frequently, that sun in November is described. There are many great shots of this Father's Day light phenomenon in the Sky Watch. Here, the sequence extends the active region in AR 2781 h-alpha light. Just before this picture was taken, a distant flock of geese flew in front of the sun's disk. I was just about to switch Barlow to the camera when I happened to spot the geese. I got a few seconds of the flock from the flight path at the comma group over the puck to the right. You have to get tired of animation sometimes about that lucky coincidence of Father’s Day.

Janssen is located in the southern highlands of the moon. At the bottom of the 190km diameter crater is a wide crack with side branches. In the picture, north is on the left.

During the observation break caused by the rainy season, I looked at the situation so far, what has accumulated. I compiled such a "preliminary map". From the Sinus Meridian area, the footage is weak. Hopefully a decent observation window would still open. (The date and time are the time the map was created). The findings are from August to October.

Mare Erythraeum dominates the view. Niliacus Lacuskin shows up. Admittedly, it is more noticeable when the northern hemisphere is turned towards the ground. This 2020 opposition will mostly serve the landscapes of the southern hemisphere.
