The Straight wall (Rupes Recta) is one of my favourite lunar features. The Straight wall has a length of 110 km and becomes visible twice a month. I imaged it Tuesday night around 10.00 pm.

I had the chance to take the advantage of clear sky last night to image Jupiter and Saturn from York Redoubt. Three of the four Galilean moons of Jupiter (L to R: Callisto, Europa and Io) were also visible. Thanks @d_hoskin for all your help!
