Abstract

We present the results of the observation of the occultation of Mars by the Moon on July 6, 2014. Observations were made from the AFARI Astronomical Observatory, in the town of Tarma, Peru. A Celestron 8 telescope with a camera WATEC 120N (GPS time inserted) were used. Time measurements for the first and second contact were obtained by analyzing the variation of the flux of Mars using the software LiMovie and two different methods of calculation. The measurements obtained were reported to the International Occultation Timing Association (IOTA).
