Unfortunately, the weather before occultation was cloudy, and strong fluctuations of the flux are seen in the occultation curves probably connected with variable atmospheric transparency because of the clouds, and also with scintillation. Thus the quality of the data is not quite high. However a timing was carried out, and after some slight analysis I will tell you the time of the event in Moscow. My best regards Eugene Trunkovsky
