The moon that crosses the meridian at 9pm will depend on the specific date and location. You can use a planetarium app or website to determine which moon will be crossing the meridian at that time for your location.
A full moon is directly opposite the Sun, so it would pass the meridian at midnight.
Each night the moon rise changes, So.... If you go to timeanddate.com, you can select a location in the drop-down menu and see times for moonrise and moonset in that location. Also provided is local time when the Moon passes the meridian with distance, fraction of the Moon illuminated and moon phase.
In space there is no day or night there.
By knowing the sun time on the prime meridian and the local sun time, one can determine their east-west position on the Earth's surface. The time difference between the two locations can be used to calculate the longitudinal difference, helping to pinpoint the exact location.

The moon transit is the time that the moon crosses an observer's meridian. The time that a moon transit occurs relative to noon depends on the quarter that the moon is in.
The Greenwich Meridian, also known as the prime meridian or International Meridian, is the "starting point" for dividing the Earth's surface into time zones. Each time zone is 15 degrees of longitude wide (with local variations) and the local time is one hour earlier than the zone immediately to the east on the map

Longitude
As your are positioned at 105E of Prime Meridian, you are on a easterly track from prime meridian (ie. GMT time) therefore LMT (Local Mean Time ) at 105E can be calculated as105E\15= 0700hrs ( results as per scientific calculator )Therefore LMT at 105E would be GMT at 105E + 0700ie 0600+0700=1300hrs.Ans Local Mean Time at 105E = 1300hrs

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.
No meridians are called the time meridian. The Greenwich meridian which passes through Greenwich, London is called the prime meridian. From which time zones are calculated.
In space there is no day or night there.
