Photo'ed this interesting reflection of light near the terminator shining off the topograhpy between craters FRA MAURO and Gambart early this morning. It was pretty windy but these afocal pics are not too bad. This is my second favorite "X" on the moon. dt

Between you and me, I think you're obsessed with that X

Hey Champ, well it took me a whle, but I finally spied the cross. Stands out when you know what you're looking for. Very cool

Who me, obsessed with the "X"'s....., how could you tell? :-) This "X" or "cross", clearly stands out (if you know what your looking for) at a colong of 194 for aprox. 3 hours I believe.....
