[Alex Pratt]

To continue this theme, I’ve attached the circumstances for numerous locations across Europe, and a (cluttered) lunar chords plot.

Thanks for providing these details Alex. The altitude for London is not too bad, even if the hour is not so convenient, and I hope that observers will send their successful results to the Mars Section in addition to posting them at their member pages. Some of our past Mars reports, all of which are available at the Section website, contain some nice images and drawings of past events. For example an occultation in 2003 was widely observed from the USA and there is a sequence of images by the late Don Parker. Good luck with the great British weather….!
