This web page produces a numerical table of moonrise, moonset, fullness
of Moon, and distance between centers of Earth and Moon in units of
Earth radii at a single specified location. The produced table
contains data for a single month, or if a month is not provided, data
for a single calendar year. Latitude and longitude must be given in
degrees and hundredths of degrees, not degrees and minutes. Default
location is the Central Park weather station, New York City.
On the Sunlight web page, refraction by the Earth's atmsophere and the
radius of the Sun's disk are considered when calculating sunrise and
sunset. These imprecisions are ignored when calculating moonrise and
moonset.
MOONLOC.FOR is the Fortran source code of
the program used on this web page.
