Want this question answered?
what is the difference in time of moonrise from one night to the next?
The phase of the moon is constantly changing. If you examined it very carefully you would notice a difference between moonrise and moonset.
Moonrise is dependent on the Moon's phase, not the seasons.
yes
It takes 24 hours and 50 minutes to go from moonrise to moonrise; this is because the Moon is revolving around the Earth at the same time that the Earth is rotating on its axis.
Any of the beaches North of Hilo Bay, up towards Papaikou. If you are not kamaaina (local folks) may not be wise to be wandering around there after dark. You can also try the Tsunami Park in Hilo, but to see moonrise from the ocean, you ae looking a bit too far North. You can also check for an evening cruise, depending on time of moonrise for date in question. Aloha
The next Full Moon will be at 4:01 AM UCT on May 9, 2009. (Subtract 4 hours to get EDT, or subtract 7 hours to get PDT.) The time of moonrise on that day will be dependent on your location. Go to http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/RS_OneDay.php to calculate the time of moonrise and sunrise on that day.
No. Time time of moonrise and moonset changes each day. It is important to note, however, that the moon is always up, 24 hours a day. The only difference is that during the day that the moon is strongly outshone by the Sun and therefore difficult to see. The terms in the above answer, specifically "moonrise" and "moonset", are described the times when the moon becomes easily visible and when it begins to be overshadowed by the Sun respectively.

The Moon rises and sets precisely on schedule. It is never "late". You can calculate the precise time of moonrise and moonset for any day for the next thousand years.
No. Moonrise can occur day or night. The moon is not related to the sun at all. Since our way of measuring time is relative to the sun, the moon does not rise at the same time every time.
