I tried to draw some limits of the zones having different levels (noted c-, c, c+) with some dark markings both on the crescent and the dark side as shown. Globally the intensity of the dark side light is decreasing having a brownish tone ( magnifications 60 and 90x). I didn't have the time to capture the dak markings with the R filter, clouds stopped the observation. I am wondering when this dark side light will not be accessible, the present phase ratio being now 0.16.[Stanislas Maksymowicz Ecquevilly,France]
