Hani's shows a little over a half crescent moon. Mark, yours shows a new moon (moonless night) Which is it? or does the moon look different in different parts of the world?

of course. The moon takes 364.5 days to navigate the earth. Its different everywhere. Longitude latitude plays a huge part.

So I guess I will be sending it your ways…

I believe it’s the lighting… due to Marks incredible phonagraphic talent he managed to cast a shadow over his IWCs moon

I meant that it's not a half moon from every anle of the world sir.

We see our moon from the suns glow as its shaded by earth. How could someone 12,000 miles away have the same angle

Different time zones. Different moon.

Are we talking about angles or phases?
Because if I remember correctly… your location on earth will govern the angle in which the moon appears but not the phase. That’s why your IWC shows “two moons”, one would be for the northern hemisphere and the other is for the southern… notice how the angle is different but the phase is the same

Yes… we live in different time zones but the same lunar month, except for the day the month changes (just like Jan in Bahrain comes about 8 hours before it does on the west coast


Just saying
