Here is the photo Andrew Cooper shot back in May of this year. At 20 hours old it doesn't appear much different that our observation except we had a bright orange sky...

Pierre's was 12hr 33m from Sentinel. Jim Stamm's was 12hr 7m, and record is M.G.Mirseed, 11hr 40m from Tehran Iran. Stephen James O'Meara claims the best naked eye at 15hr 32m (that figures...). Jack ----- Original Message ----- I like the math but, to see it at "skinnier" level of illumination than we did? Wow! -----Original Message----- From: az-observing-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:az-observing-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Jack Jones Sent: Monday, September 25, 2006 8:01 PM To: az-observing@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [AZ-Observing] Re: Young Moon Siting Nope not even close. Add 24 hrs to that. 37 hrs and 51 minutes? Now correct me if I'm wrong.

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? Jack -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
