What moon is best for stargazing?
the new moon

Montréal moon phase today (23rd October 2022)
The moon is currently 27.6 days old. It is 388236 km (241239 miles) from the Earth. Next full moon is on 9 Oct 2022.
Why is the moon in a different direction tonight?
This is because the earth is spinning. It takes 24 hours for the the earth to spin once around, which means that from our point of view (sitting on the earth’s surface) it looks like the sky and everything in it is moving around us once per 24 hours.
Why is the moon on the opposite side tonight?
The Moon is now half way around the Earth in its orbit. The Earth is between the Moon and the Sun so we see the Moon fully lit. We now see the Moon opposite the Sun in the sky, so as the Sun sets, the Moon rises.
Why is the moon horizontal tonight?
The short answer is that it’s caused by the fact that the Earth is tilted 23.5 degrees, and that the Earth orbits around the sun.
Where is the new moon positioned?
In the case of a New Moon, the Moon is between Earth and the Sun, so the side of the Moon facing the Sun isn’t facing us. We can’t see any portion of the lit-up Moon during this phase. (When the Sun and Moon exactly line up, as viewed from Earth, we get a special experience known as a solar eclipse.)
Is the Moon always facing us?
The Moon orbits Earth once every 27.3 days and spins on its axis once every 27.3 days. This means that although the Moon is rotating, it always keeps one face toward us. Known as “synchronous rotation,” this is why we only ever see the Moon’s nearside from Earth.
Why is the Moon in the east this morning?
How the moon becomes visible in the day. The moon rises in the east and sets in the west just like everything else in the night sky. That’s because Earth is rotating from west to east. The moon is orbiting in the same direction, also from west to east.
Why is the moon so visible today?
In fact, the Moon is visible in daylight almost every day. The Earth’s daily revolution on its axis means that the Moon is actually above the horizon for about 12 hours out of every 24.
At what elevation is moon visible?
2 At site elevation of around 2000 m, the optimum altitude of the lunar crescent to be first seen is about 2 degrees.
What time is the Blood moon in Montreal?
Totality will last nearly nearly one and a half hours — from 5:16 a.m. to 6:41 a.m. — as Earth passes directly between the moon and sun. Montrealers are invited to gather at Jean-Mance Park for an eclipse event hosted by Plateau Astro and Zenderfull.
Which direction is best for stargazing?
Southern skies are more popular for their stargazing opportunities because the South Pole faces the center of the Milky Way. The brightest of these constellations is the Southern Cross, which can be seen year round. Some other popular constellations are: Centaurus, Circumpolar.
What time of night is the sky darkest?
Midnight. This describes when the sun is farthest below the horizon, and corresponds with when the sky is darkest. Whenever there is no sunrise or sunset, such as near the poles in summer and winter, this describes the time of day when the sky is least bright.
