LOS OBSERVADORES LUNARES DE LA SOCIEDAD LUNAR ARGENTINA EN “THE LUNAR OBSERVER” DE AGOSTO 2021

 

Otro mes más de observaciones lunares aceptadas por la revista especializada en observación lunar más importante, The Lunar Observer, ya van 73 meses seguidos de observaciones y textos de nuestra asociación reconocidos a nivel mundial.

La revista se puede descargar de la web de ALPO:  http://www.alpo-astronomy.org/gallery3/var/albums/Lunar/The-Lunar-Observer/2021/tlo202108.pdf?m=1627760755http://www.alpo-astronomy.org/gallery3/var/albums/Lunar/The-Lunar-Observer/2021/tlo202108.pdf?m=1627760755

I hope that this finds you and your loved ones healthy. In the northern hemisphere, it has largely been a hot summer. In the western USA, Canada and even Asia, wildfires have caused the skies for many to become smoky and hazy. Please note the image by Frank Melillo on the right. This image describes the skies of the summer 2021 well. This issue of The Lunar Observer has interesting articles about lunar topographic features by Rik Hill, Alberto Anunziato and David Teske. A number of wonderful lunar images grace the Recent Topographic Studies. As always, Tony Cook gives a detailed look at Lunar Geologic Change. Perhaps most interesting this month is the boom review, LTVT-The Book by its author, John Moore. I strongly believe that the readers of this newsletter would benefit by using the LTVT program. This book by John Moore will be an invaluable asset to future lunar studies.

En la Sección “Lunar Geological Change Detection Program” (páginas 29 y siguientes), se reportan nuestras observaciones:

Level 1 – Reports received for June included: Jay Albert (Lake Worth, FL, USA - ALPO) observed: Alphonsus Kies and Plato. Alberto Anunziato (Argentina – SLA) observed: Agrippa, Plato, Swift and several features. Anthony Cook (Newtown, UK – ALPO/BAA) obtained video of earthshine in monochrome, color images of several features, and the lunar surface in thermal IR. Rik Hill (Tucson, AZ, USA – ALPO/BAA) imaged: Clavius, Moretus, Rupes Recta and Tycho. Trevor Smith (Codnor, UK – BAA) observed: Archimedes, Aristarchus, Bullialdus, Plato, Tycho and several features. Aldo Tonon (Italy – UAI) imaged: Eratosthenes

Una observación visual de Alberto Anunziato permitió analizar exhaustivamente un reporte de FLT (Fenómeno Lunar Transitorio) de 1966 en Agrippa y removerlo de la base de datos.
