What time of the day do you expect the new moon to rise?

The new moon is not visible in the sky as it rises and sets with the sun during the day. It's the moon phase when the moon is directly between the Earth and the sun, so it rises and sets with the sun and is not observable.

A new moon rises at approximately the same time as the sun rises and sets. This is because the moon is in the same part of the sky as the sun during a new moon phase.


Why does the moon set later each day?

The moon sets later each day due to its orbit around the Earth. As the Earth rotates on its axis, the moon moves in its orbit, which is approximately 13 degrees eastward each day. This movement means that it takes longer for the Earth to rotate enough for the moon to reach the horizon again, resulting in a later setting time each day. Consequently, the moon sets about 50 minutes later each day.

What time does 3rd quarter moon rise?

The time of day that the Moon rises or sets depends on its phase. This should be obvious when you remember that the phase of the Moon depends on the relative positions of the Sun, Moon and Earth. For example when the Moon is Full it is opposite the Earth from the Sun, so when the Sun sets, the Moon must rise and vice versa. Here is a table summarizing that: Moon phase Moonrise Moonset New Moon Sunrise Sunset 1st quarter Local noon Local midnight Full Moon Sunset Sunrise 3rd quarter Local midnight Local noon By local noon and local midnight I mean the points when the Sun crosses the meridian, and exactly 12 hours later. This can be different from the time on your watch because we define time zones which all use the local time at the centre of the zone.First Quarter moon rises one quarter day after the sun, or around Noon.Around noon, plus or minus a bit depending on where in your time zone you live.


When does a full moon set?

A full moon typically rises at sunset and sets at sunrise the following day. This means that a full moon is generally visible throughout the night, peaking in brightness around midnight. The exact time it sets can vary depending on the specific date and geographical location.

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.
