What time of day does the full moon happen?
Full moons occur when the moon is at a point in its orbit where it is opposite the sun relative to the Earth. That happens about once a month. It can be at any time of day or night, depending on where you happen to be on the Earth. However, in most places on Earth, the full moon will not appear above the horizon unless the sun is near or below the horizon. So, the moon can be full any time of day, but you'll only be able to see it at night.
