Tonight (9 July 2019) wil be the prime time to dust off your telescope and look for the Apollo 11 landing site on the Moon. After tonight, the Sun will rise higher in the Moon’s sky. This will shorten the length of shadows from craters around the landing site making it more difficult to locate. Strictly speaking you will only be able to locate the approximate area of the landing site as all the Apollo 11 artifacts remaining on the Moon are too small to see through a telescope.
An enlarged part of the above chart (see below) will act as a better guide. For reference, the crater Moltke is 6.5 kilometers in diameter.
Finally, you may want to observe and record the appearance of Moon between tonight and Full Moon. If you observe it at the same time each evening (end of evening twilight), you will also notice that the Moon moves from the West to the East. This movement demonstrates the Moon’s movement in it’s orbit around the Earth.
