The new moon sets when the Sun does, somewhere near (depending on the season) 6 PM. (Earlier in the winter, later in the summer, and this doesn't count Daylight Savings Time where applicable.) The Moon "moves backwards" about 12 degrees per day, rising and setting about 45 minutes later each day. So a 3-day old Moon, 3 days past the new, will set about 8:30 PM, VERY roughly, and depending on the declination of the Moon at that point.
If you want an accurate answer, the U.S. Naval Observatory's Sunrise/Sunset calculator can provide precise-to-the-minute computations, requiring only the date and your location.
Monday was named after the moon (monandaeg = moon's day in old english).
The moon is constantly lagging the sun, traveling a circuit 'backwards' around the sky that runs 29.53 days. So each day, the moon is 1/29.53 of a day farther behind the sun, and after 29.53 days, the sun has 'lapped' the moon. The sun and moon are together at the time of New Moon. Three days later, the moon is 3/29.53 days lagging behind the sun, so it should be rising nominally 2.44 hours after the sun rises. There are a lot of slopes, tilts, refractions and eccentricities that modify the number, but this is the 'quick and dirty' way to figure it out . . . 1/29.53 day, or 49 minutes, farther behind the sun each day, starting with zero at New Moon.
The answer to this riddle is the face of the moon. It "disappears" before it is a month old and has been around for a long time.
Monday was named after the moon in English. It comes from the Old English word "Monandæg," which means Moon's day. In many other languages, Monday is also named after the moon.
The first dog on the moon, Laika, was a female Soviet space dog who was about three years old when she was launched into space on November 3, 1957.
Two moon dragons would make another moon dragon. Two of the same type of dragon always results in the same dragon. The time of day does not make a difference when trying to get a sun or moon dragon. That was a rumor that started just after their release, and still hangs on due to old forum posts.
In the old days, I think Indians tribes measured time by the daily appearance of the moon in the sky (I'll be seeing you Tonto in 3 moons) and by phases of the moon (quarter, half, three-quarters and full), plus seasonal moon (such as harvest moon) and position in the sky. Frankly, I don't know whether the Sioux used the moon and/or the sun.
The name "Monday" is derived from Old English "Monandæg," which translates to "Moon's Day." This reflects a similar naming convention in other languages, where the day is associated with the Moon. The concept of a seven-day week, including Monday, has roots in ancient Babylonian astrology, where each day was linked to a celestial body. The naming of Monday as the day of the Moon has persisted through various cultures and languages over time.
They are old lava flows from the time when the moon still had a molten core.

Monday was named after the moon in many languages, such as French (Lundi) and Spanish (Lunes). The name Monday originates from the Old English word "Monandaeg" meaning "Moon's day".
Only three of Donny's five sons are old enough to have served a full-time mission, but I believe that all three who are old enough have.
