Rob wrote When you say solar transits are much more likely to be observed than lunar transits, but then go on to say there have only been two "verifiable" solar transit observations, you imply that there must be no "verifiable" record of a lunar transit. I guess I would ask, "verifiable" by what standard? Few people regularly record video or still photography of such events. But if you have multiple, experienced witnesses to the same event, I'd say that's sufficient. I don't have a verifiable record of the sat transit I saw on Aug 13. I didn't even worry about, having a verifiable record of the event. I just wanted to watch it and enjoy it, thats what matters to me. So if I see a dark sat transit across the moon, I won't have any record, but as long I see one I'll be happy. Just I won't be able to prove it.
