Re: MOON It's just a phase it's going through.



Boy; that's some point of dwell. Nearly 50 hours. And how long was the
new moon between 1 degree of visibility?- Hide quoted text -

Which new Moon? The New Moon of Feb 17th or the
upcoming one of Mar 19th?

Or did you mean the Full Moon of Mar 3? (It looked new
for a while there.)

At any rate the Moon *averages* 12.190749 degrees of
daily motion and the position of the terminator is a function
of this travel. (But not exactly because there's this problem
of Libration to contend with.)

But these things aren't difficult to "peck up" on an Excel
spread***. So what epoch (precisely) are you curious
about?
