Call for observations
The Hook of Plato’s Shadow

In the August 2023 The Lunar Observer, lunar imager extraordinaire KC Pau of Hong Kong, China presented an excellent article entitled “Plato Hook Shadow Is Real”. As with all of his lunar work, this was an excellent study of the hook of Plato’s shadow.

I presented KC’s article for inclusion in an upcoming issue of the JALPO due to the widespread interest in the Hook. In addition, aspects of the feature remain enigmatic, such as the exact conditions (and their parameters) required to create the feature. Therefore I am putting out a call to all ALPO lunar observers for any additional images or observations of Plato’s hook. Please send the images or drawings – along with all the usual metadata including time and location of the observation – to me at drteske@yahoo.com and david.teske@alpo-astronomy.org. Your images and observations will be used to advance our understanding of this most interesting feature.

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
Clear skies!
David Teske
