Moon Rise / Set

Moonrise and moonset times refer to the moments when the Moon appears above the horizon (moonrise) and when it sinks below the horizon (moonset). These times are influenced by the Moon's orbit around the Earth, the Earth's rotation, and the observer’s geographic location. Unlike the Sun, the Moon's rise and set times change significantly from day to day, sometimes occurring during daylight hours. The lunar cycle, which lasts about 29.5 days, causes these variations, making moonrise and moonset times useful for observing lunar phases and events like eclipses.
