November 10th, 2003.
It was observed by Frank Melillo today, too. It was observed from
Meridiani (0W,-5) to Solis lacus(90W,-25). There is a cloud around
Acidarium (30W,+50), and it is hidden. There is no conspicuous change
in those others.

Dear all-
Mars was imaged 2003/11/09 23:42(UT) and 2003/11/10 03:42(UT).
The seeing was nealy excellent with the first image but so-so in the second image as Mars was getting lower in the west.

Surprisingly, Mars is showing the details pretty well at 13.6".
The first image 2003/11/09 23:42(UT) shows Sabaeus Sinus and Meridiani Sinus nicely on the CM. Hellas might be a little brighter than it should on the western limb . But, it may due to the PM clouds. Otherwise, it is looking normal.
Four hours later at 2003/11/10 03:42(UT), the second image shows Solis Lacus rising from the eastern limb. But, there are possible clouds around Chryse and Candor area. They show up well in red light. Perhaps dust?
