An Exercise for the Student

LPOD-June2-10.jpg

image by Steve Thornton

Another image of the southern highlands. Rather blah, isn't it? But wait, is there something here that doesn't belong? Here is Steve' story:

A couple years ago I was imaging the southern part of the Moon along the terminator when I picked up an object moving across the screen. The AVI recorded about 13 frames of the object. It's definitely circular. This LPOD image is one of the frames as the dark dot crossed Stofler. I also downloaded the video of the AVI and my son compressed it and put it on his YouTube Chuck Wood

Technical Details
March 15, 2008. 6" f/9 Starfire refractor, prime focus with a DMK 21BF04 camera.
