Thank you Bob for the above informatin...It is new to me...
I appreciate you taking the time to post it.
May I take it that you are no less than an amature astronomer?
Possilby a professional astronomer?

I gladly admit that the information you have posted is far
beyond what I have taken the time to study regarding the moon.

Again Thanks.

REgards, Mike
