Moon Phases in Sydney — FAQ

Answers refreshed daily based on tonight's actual moon phase in Sydney.

What is the current moon phase in Sydney?
The moon is currently in an intermediate phase, with unspecified of its visible disk illuminated as seen from Sydney, Australia. The phase changes continuously through the ~29.5-day synodic cycle, advancing roughly 12.2° each day.
What time does the moon rise tonight in Sydney?
In Sydney, moonrise tonight is at N/A local time, and moonset is at N/A. The exact times shift by ~50 minutes later each day.
Why does the moon look different each night?
What you see is the moon reflecting the sun's light from different angles as it orbits Earth. From New Moon (0%% illuminated) it grows through First Quarter (50%%) and Full Moon (100%%) to Last Quarter (50%%) and back. Cloud cover, the moon's distance (perigee/apogee), and atmospheric refraction all subtly change how it appears.
When is the next full moon visible from Sydney?
The next full moon is on an upcoming date. Full moons rise around sunset and set around sunrise; if the weather cooperates, any open eastern horizon in Sydney will give a clear view at moonrise.
When is the next new moon for Sydney?
The next new moon is on an upcoming date. New moons are invisible because the moon is between Earth and the sun; this is also the best window for stargazing, as the sky stays dark all night.
Why does the moon sometimes look orange at the horizon?
When the moon (or sun) is near the horizon, its light passes through much more atmosphere than when overhead. Air molecules scatter the blue end of the spectrum away, leaving the warmer red/orange wavelengths to reach the eye. Dust and humidity intensify the effect.
