Anyone notice a weird tilt to the moon tonight?
I usually don't pay attention to claims that something strange is going on with the moon, but I was just looking out the window and something doesn't seem right. The moon seems to be at a weird angle that I've never seen before. I can't put my finger on what is wrong, but I know something is off.

Its at half shadow, slightly gibbous and at about a 60 deg angle. Can any moontards out there shed some light on this?

I'm aware of the wet and dry moon phases, but I don't see how it could change so drastically in just 2.5 weeks. I distinctly remember seeing the cheshire or "full wet" moon on Feb. 4th and now it is way further towards "dry" than it should be.

I know about the wet and dry moons. However, it gradually switches from wet in the winter (in n. hemisphere) to dry in the summer. I have observed it for several weeks and it has gone from full on wet to almost dry in the last two weeks. If you can explain this, please do.

Re: Anyone notice a weird tilt to the moon tonight?
When it was "dry" where in the sky was it? Was it high up? The Moon will appear to rotate up to 180 degrees throughout the night. It does this because your perspective changes. When it rise you are looking East, when high you are looking south (if in the northern hemispher) and when it sets you are looking West. Your perspective changes and the Moon and everything else in the sky appears to have rotated. The amount of rotation varys due to your location and time of year. It can also change in just a few weeks due to the tilted orbit. When you see a lot of tilt (wet moon) the Moon is in the higher part of the inclination of the orbit. Two weeks later it is would be in the lower part and the tilt would be less.

Maybe all those people who never recall seeing a wet moon time shifted over from another reality where there was no wet moon. Just sayin.

I watch moon every night for last ten years. Not because I'm a moontard but it just shows up on my window and my computer moniter is right below the window.

I don't think moon's tilt is the problem. It tilts from time to time. However, I've been noticing the "orange moon" lately. Sometimes it's like red all night long.

I bet you think the moon occupies the same spot in the sky at the same time each day.....
