解説(安達)
 Donald C Parkerの画像によれば、ヘラス(Hellas;295W,-50)は南側に白雲が
覆っている。これはターミネーターによってできた雲で、地形的にできた雲では
ないだろう。低緯度地方の白雲は、
シルチス(Syrtis Major;295W,+10)付近で切れているように見える。しかし、
アエリア(Aeria;310W,+15)からエデン(Eden;350W,+25)にかけての雲の様な
明るい部分が、シルチス(Syrtis Major;295W,+10)の部分だけ完全に切れてい
るとは思えない。撮影された波長による影響があるかも知れない。

According to the image of Donald C Parker, on the south of Hellas is covered
with white clouds. Probably this is the clouds made by rotation and is
not the clouds made in geographical feature. The white clouds of low
latitudes seem to have run out near Syrtis Major(295W,+10). However, a
bright portion like the clouds applied to Edenb(350W,+25) from Aeria
(310W,+15) cannot think that only the portion of Syrtis Major has run
out completely. It may have the influence by the photoed wavelength.

Seeing a little above average.

As an experiment,I decided to also image with my piggy-backed Orion  ED80.

A 5x Powermate and a 3x Barlow were used together. The broad shape of the
Mare Cimmerium can be seen.
