The moon rises and sets about 50 minutes later each day as it moves through its phases. Always has. Because of this, throughout the month it WILL be visible in the day. Right now it is the day after first quarter. Generally, a full Moon rises about 6 pm and sets about 6 am. A new Moon generally rises about 6 am and sets about 6 pm. The first quarter rises about noon and sets around midnight. Seeing it East of the sun at 1:45 is not abnormal at all. Welcome to reality. Nice of you to join us.
