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...

The Feb 2004 S&T has the article and the records. 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...).

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?
