Hi! While imaging a Lunar Occultation of SAO 110038 at 7:34PM EST last night from Mitchelleville, MD, I saw something crossing the moon's surface. There were a couple of bright flashes and then the silhouette against the bright Cusp. Who says that occultation timing can't be fun! I selected three frames from the video which had to be enhanced to see SAO 110038.
