System of Absolute Elevations in the Marginal Zone of the Moon Derived from Stellar Occultations
Abstract
The present paper contains an outline of the method for a determination of the altitudes in the lunar marginal zone from occultations of the stars by the Moon; and the limb charts of this zone were constructed from such altitudes.
