Moon Phase Guide

🌑
New Moon

Best for deep-sky observation - no moonlight interference

🌓
First Quarter

Excellent for viewing lunar craters along the terminator line

🌕
Full Moon

Worst for stargazing but great for admiring the Moon itself

🌗
Last Quarter

Good for early-morning deep sky and the Moon rises at midnight
