Observers of Lunar Crater Timings

Presenter(s): Dave Herald

Affiliation(s): CAS

Session details: Posters

Abstract

This poster paper will list all the observers in the catalogue of Lunar Eclipse Crater Timings that have been archived at VizieR. Many observers are Australian, and have attended NACAA over the years. Indeed some will have made crater timing ovbservations during the 1978 NACAA, where CAS arranged for a Lunar Eclipse to occur duiring the convention. The list will enable people to associate past involvement with the paper Dave Herald is presenting on Sunday Morning, with absentee co-author Roger Sinnot (of S&T).
