Someone who only identifies themself as Computer Physics Lab sent this image and text: Yesterday night, 2009-09-04, I took some videos of Grimaldi crater on the Moon. I could visually spot a long shadow reaching the limb, and I don't know where it comes from, or which peak is casting it. Here is a set of two pictures taken this night through my 6-inch telescope. One was taken using a webcam, and the other using a point-and-shoot camera. Very near to the shadow there is a crater chain aligned to the shadow. I don't know if they could be related to the shadow in someway... This is apparently an independent re-discovery of a feature that has been sporadically observed for decades and is described in the December 8, 2008 Chuck Wood
Technical Details
I think the date was probably Sept 3, rather than Sept 4.
