Its clear tonight so, after 90mins on Gyulbudaghian’s, I had a bash with the 300mm Newtonian. Hadn’t noticed how fast Chandrayaan-3 was predicted to be moving. 4 arc secs per second…

Got it in 1 sec exposures. Will work out a magnitude tomorrow.First observations were through a hedge which really did not help.
