The Moon in April 2027

The Moon is full on 20 April, and new on 6 April. Every night of April 2027 is drawn below, from astronomy-engine's numbers for the Moon at 10 pm Mountain Time; the shape is the same anywhere in the US that night.

The four phase dates

In April, look at the Moon every night. On 20 April 2027 it is a big round circle. Around 6 April 2027 you can't see it at all. Draw what you see.

The Moon is full on 20 April, and new on 6 April. First quarter, when the right half is lit, is on 13 April 2027: a good night to look at craters with binoculars, along the line between light and dark. The Moon goes from new to full and back in about 29 and a half days.

The Moon is full on 20 April, and new on 6 April. At that full Moon, astronomy-engine puts it about 383,421 km from Earth's center; the Moon's distance swings between about 356,000 and 406,000 km. Phase dates here are the Mountain Time day of the exact instant, so a phase late in the evening can fall on the next day in Europe.
