Monthly moon calendars

Method

Phases, illumination and Earth–Moon distances are computed with Skyfield and the JPL DE421 ephemeris. Moon age is the time since the last new moon, given at 12:00 local time in calendars. Moonrise and moonset are for the upper limb of the moon on a level horizon with mean refraction, at sea level; terrain and weather can change observed times. On some days the moon does not rise or set (shown as –). Times are local.
