Hallo into the Round,, esp. Hallo, Alain,

Taking up the thread about 'seeing the sun brownish "delightened" with halo' :
['a circular halo around the Sun with central brownish delightening and strong spreading of
LASER-like light-amplification which in other places has been discussed as indicator for
Water in the Mesosphere'],
I would like Alain to be helpful
contacting the ISS-Staff as soon as possible:
I see a New Scientific Possibility, which I could not trace as yet to have been used by NASA:
there will be an excellent opportunity
for the staff active on ISS,
to take comparative Fotos of the rising Moon
even using the occasion of the Eclipse of the Moon
with the same cameras in repetitiv identical Situations as additional Controls
while rising over the horizon at different levels
The Albedo of the white light of the Sun is always reflected by the Moon
without any significant atmospheric filter towards the observer.
So only here the Moon is possibly partly obscured by the dust in the atmosphere
then in the Stratosphere including the Ozonlayers with the different light-scattering gases
and then the different heights of Mesosphere with the different stratified layers
35-50 km (cold- 50° - +3°C with rel.warm narrow peak)
60-80 km (deep-freeze -80° -100°C )
80-100 km Mesopause (-80-+80°C the data are in various publications at slight variance)
and finally free in the surrounding at the normal ISS-Level (300 km at +80° --> +150° ???).
And especially the short-term of the Eclipse will give the opportunity
to compare the Filter-Effect of the Earth' Plasma-Tail with Core-Shadow without reflexion
and the Semi-Shade which is dominated by the athmospheric layers Scattering of the white light.
When later comparing the fotos
with the identical Full-Moon-Pix without the Earth's Umbra (=Shade)
it will be interesting to see, that there are rather brownish Filters in the Mesosphere now.
From the various Pictures which NASA lets us download,
it would be great to compare more than the three Full-Moon-Pix which I have gathered until now:
one undated of 1973 from Skylab,
another of the Full-Moon on the pix of Hurricane Emily 17.7.2005
and another one undated of 2007, which was cut with a triangular edge only of the
white basal layer of Stratospheric Clouds or whatever was next underneath the ISS and Shuttle.
And here one can say(if it could be noted) Moon rising over Europe or Atlantic or USA,
and finally f.i. through the Ionosphere or (almost overhead) through Exosphere,
(here even may have to be noted the possibility of taking the overhead-pix through the Earth'
Magneto-plasma-Tail on the night-side)
It would give scientifically provable evidence
of the Substances causing the Filtering Effect.
And NASA certainly has the possibilities to analyze the filter's nm wavelengths tracing the gases.
And the Total Lunar Eclipse coming up tonight will be an excellent possibility
to put up such scientifically certainly important pictures.

So Please, Alain, could you be helpful,
to send this as a scientific hint to the ISS directly ?
Hope it is not too late and they are not too busy otherwise.
But probably the clever Nasa-Staff has already thought of this possibility anyway and given orders.
Still- then it was an interesting situation to come to think of these possibilities.
Let me know, what came out, please.
If it be too late now, there are normally 2-3 Total Eclipses per year, ...
