[AZ-Observing] Re: Young Moon Siting

Those of us that were out there Friday night really blew it as we could have
had 14 hours, give or take. I don't know how we could have possibly picked
it out though because Saturday was tough enough...

You must be right about the minds, saw the error when you did and messages
crossed in the email! You even asked about the record. That seems like a
long
time for that thin a crescent, what a slow Moon. Isn't the record like 16
hours?? Really don't remeber and can't find the darn magazine.

I like the math but, to see it at "skinnier" level of illumination than we
did? Wow!

Nope not even close. Add 24 hrs to that. 37 hrs and 51 minutes? Now correct
me
if I'm wrong.

Almost forgot. Jimmy Ray and folks saw the young Moon at Antenna site
Saturday
eve with both binoculars and unaided eye (nekkid-eye says Steve). New Moon
was
4:46 AM Fri the 22nd. We saw the young moon Saturday at 18:37, so we saw it
at
age 13 hours and 51 minutes (correct me if I'm wrong). Not nearly the record
but a record for me. Anyone know the record of Pierre Schwaar or Jim S. in
Tucson?
