New Moon Crescent Observation Report ==================================== November 2005 Location = Tucson, Arizona (USA) Gates Pass Longitude = 111.10 W Latitude = 32.22 N Elevation = 963 meters Time Zone = -7.0 hours Topocentric and local time values from "Accurate Times": Sunset (at sea level) = 17:38 Moonset (at sea level) = 18:00 Time from new moon at 17:43 = 22 hr. 10 min. Moon lag time = 21 minutes Relative Altitude = 4.00 degrees Elongation from sun = 11.99 degrees Crescent width = 21 arcseconds Illumination = 1.1 percent Crescent first observed through 8" SC telescope: Time = 17:43 Altitude = 1.2 degrees Lots of cirrus clouds interfered with the observation, but they were thinning and there were breaks. The Moon wasn't visible through the breaks until 17:43 at the predicted time and position. The image was dull and smooth, and I didn't note any other characteristics, because I wanted the others to see it. However, at least four other people tried, but were not successful. Focus was very critical for this observation, and I believe that was the reason for lack of success. Observer(s): Jim Stamm
