		David Lloyd Stewart (born Waterloo, London, 30 December 1950) is a musician currently recording with singer Barbara Gaskin.

	Alphonsus
		Alphonsus escaped being overwhelmed by the ejecta and uplift, but the crater walls were eroded and almost certainly settled as a result of the Imbrian impact, and the stresses of that impact also probably further weakened the crust in the floor of the crater.
		Arzachel’s ejecta is best preserved within Alphonsus, since the highland units around Arzachel interfere with discerning the ejecta clearly, except perhaps to the south.

		Note that the longest such liniment on the face of the Moon is noted as beginning at Lalande C and extending all the way to the Rim of Alphonsus for a total distance of 235km.
		Lying on the eastern floor of Arzachel is what appears to be a sinuous rille but which is in reality an arculate rille and a fracture of Arzachel's floor a portion of which, at least, formed in a similar way to the Straight wall.

		With the rest of the family asleep at 01:15 am, after waiting an hour for the scope to cool and the Moon to climb high enough in the sky to get a steady image, I pointed the scope toward the 22 day-old Moon.
		The first features to emerge were craters Arzachel and Alphonsus now starting to disappear into the sunset (Ptolemaeus had all but disappeared into the darkness already).
		Arzachel was the very first Crater I managed to positively identify as a ten year old with an old set of 8x30 Tripod-mounted Binoculars and a copy of the Rukl Atlas from the local library, so it was good to make contact again !

		Tonight I was able to detect a part of the Rimae Arzachel between Arzachel A, the crater northeast of the central peak, and the edge of the crater.
		Arzachel K is visible south of Arzachel A. In the western rim of the crater, Arzachel B (a small crater) and Arzachel F (a kind of valley) are visible.
