Please see previous heads up for details.  Weather looks fairly good for tonight in many places, even including Yorkshire 🙂.

Presume it has not got a bit missing, and is still Barker's Quadrangle! 🙂

Looks to be visible to me now despite the seeing not being the best. Very neat. Thanks for the heads up

I think this is it

That looks right Neil. This was my shot from last time which I think we eventually agreed ‘was it!’ 😉

Nice one.

Excellent. Thanks for confirming, Stu! I’d not heard of this before the heads up. Your image matches what I was seeing in eyepiece

I’ve been able to clearly see the quadrangle tonight. I haven’t yet managed to see the nearby kite shape feature that was also visible last time around.

Got a good view at 250x with my mak, at around 00:30 to 1am Dorsa Harker was very clear, as were the two bright points that form the quadrangles north corners, the rest was less distinct but definitely visible.

I really appreciate the heads up advance notice and helpful notes / illustrations for such things, thanks to all who post them 🙂

I've not heard of this feature before and will check it out - I wonder if it will still be on tonight.
