   Pressure    =  29.64 in.

   Some haze kept the western sky from being perfect.

Topocentric and local time values from “Accurate Times”:

   Moonset (at sea level)  =  19:05
   Time from new moon at   18:44   =  20 hr. 03 min.
   Moon lag time                   =         38 min.
   Relative Altitude               =    7.9  degrees

   Illumination                    =    0.8  percent

I was NOT able to see the crescent, even through a telescope.

Thinking that the crescent would be easily visible, I did not 
aim the telescope, but I am pretty sure that the field of view of the finder held the image.  However, the image did not reveal itself to me through the 9x50 finder scope, nor the 55x eyepiece while scanning the area.

وقال عضو المشروع السيد سوجنج  رياضي "The new crescent of Muharram 1439 AH was not sighted from Banjarnegara by my Team and from Assalaam Observatory by my Students of CASA (Club Astronomi Santri Assalaam) on Wednesday, September 20th, 2017 because the sky was cloudy and hazy I tried to observe with my Tim of Rowasiya and Assalaam Observatory. However the 1st of Muharram 1439 AH in Indonesia will start on Thursday, September 21st, 2017 according to the calculation.

وقال عضو المشروع الدكتور جواد تورابنيجاد "I arrived at my sighting location at 7:22 pm EDT (sunset: 7:21 pm).  The western horizon was partly cloudy and hazy.  Using a pair of binoculars (7X50), I started scanning the horizon.  The first binocular sighting was at 7:32 pm.  Immediately after, I saw the crescent with naked eye.  The horns were at 1:30 and 6:30 O'clock (1:30;4:00;6:30).  I left the area at 7:44  (moonset: 8:28 pm)."

I was NOT able to see the crescent, even through a telescope.

Everything was good, except the humidity.  Aiming and focus was spot on, and I expected to see the crescent, if not immediately, then as soon as it rose above the murk, at maybe 10 degrees.  However, no image formed that lasted more than a second, until after the sun rose.  Then only for two seconds.  They must have been due to some kind of internal reflection.

I was at Colombo at my house couldn't sight the crescent. The horizon was partly cloudy.
 A positive sighting report came from Kinniya by Moulavi faizal (Rahmany) as he and some of friends sighted the waning crescent. In Srilanka sighting waxing crescent for the month of Muharram 1439 AH falls on 21st Thursday evening.
