Moon Observations DAILY....The skies have been overcast since the New Moon Phase, which has made it difficult for us to make our observations. Please use the free skyview app on a smartphone to see the daily phase and movement of the moon, If you do not have a smartphone, please go to stardate.org and record the moon phase from there. Many of the weather sations (ex.wmctv.com) show the moon phase and time of moonrise and moonset on their weather page. Once the skies clear look for the moon to be appearing in the night sky and early morning. Do not give up on trying to get a visual of the moon....IT IS OUT THERE WAITING TO BE SEEN BY YOU!
