Description

First light for my new old  C14 Starbright Fastar - replacing the C11 for planetary and Moon. 

The shadow line of peaks (at the edge of Mare Crisium) is projected beautifully on the flat Mare floor.  
My astro fiend Leo pointed out that also the O'Neil bridge is clearly visible. A patch of light that seems to fall below a supposed 'bridge' gives an impression that there is a natural arc - or maybe an artificial bridge. It caused an upstir in1953.
