Well now, let me tell ya something about the moon today. It’s a good one, you know? The moon’s all bright and big, and it’s just about 98% lit up. That’s a whole lotta moon if you ask me! The moon’s gettin’ fuller by the minute, it’s growin’ into what folks call a ‘Full Moon’. It won’t be fully there yet, but in about 21 hours, right around 11:36 PM on the 17th, it’ll be all big and round, lookin’ like a shiny plate in the sky. Ain’t that somethin’?
The Full Moon, well, that’s a sight to see! It means the moon’s in its fullest phase, all lit up by the sun. It’s a time when folks start talkin’ about things like tides, and how the moon affects the world. But, don’t worry if you miss it—right after that, the moon’s gonna start shrinkin’, headin’ into the ‘Waning Moon’ phase. That’ll happen around the 24th of the month, at 3:52 in the afternoon. I know, sounds like a lot, but it’s all about how the moon moves in the sky.
Now, if you want to catch the moon risin’ up tonight, you best be lookin’ at around 11:08 PM. That’s when it’ll start showin’ up on the horizon in places like Sao Paulo, Brazil. But if you’re in other spots, the times might differ just a little, so make sure you check your local moon times. Ain’t no harm in knowin’ when to look up, right?
Let me tell ya, the moon’s got a way of changin’ things up, and we all look to it in different ways. Some folks say the moon affects the tides of the sea, others say it messes with people’s moods. I don’t know much about all that, but one thing’s for sure—it sure is a mighty sight up there, floatin’ in the night sky.
And if you’re lookin’ for the exact time the moon’s gonna rise or set where you live, there are tools to help with that! You can find online calendars and apps to tell ya the right time for your city, even down to the minute. Ain’t that nifty? All you gotta do is know your city, and it’ll give ya the moon’s rise and set times, plus all the phases and whatnot. Real handy!
As for today’s moon, it’s in its Waxing Gibbous phase, meaning it’s buildin’ up to that big ol’ Full Moon. The sky’ll get darker and darker, and you’ll see the moon grow more and more. By tomorrow night, it’ll be so bright you could almost read a book by it, or at least make out the stars and the trees better than usual.
So, look up tonight! That big moon’s comin’—it’ll rise late in the evening, but it’s worth the wait. If you’re in a place like Salvador or Brasilia, you’ll get a perfect view of it, too. Just don’t forget to look when it’s the right time for your area.
