1-1-2023 TSS Visual Report of the Day.

by helicon

"The Moon...and other things"

What follows is a fascinating report on the Apollo17 Landing site which ocurred in the mare serenitatis area on the moon. Unitron48 (Dave) took out his Stellarvue 127 frac and was able to ratchet up the power on a night of good seeing and zero in on the environs of the landing. Interestingly enough, Dave had a chance to meet the astronauts of that mission in American Samoa. He also looked at clusters in Auriga and Taurus, capping the evening. Congratulations Dave on a highly interesting and unique report and on winning today's (and 2023's first) VROD.
