World Record for the Youngest Crescent Moon Ever Detected!

Fab pic Astro, thanks for that :)

At least you find my attacks to be decisive. Thanks!

Nobody cares. You are a douche.

O rly?

Funny how you reply to responses on other posts within 30 seconds when you're trying to debunk something yet you don't respond nearly as quick on your own threads. Proves you're here just to be a SHILL and your threads are only cover for your real purpose. DOUCHE!

I respond when I happen to be on and looking. You have resorted to the "shill gambit," you are dismissed. I have run out of patience for your type.

DISMISSED?

SO it must be intentionally buggy as always...

what about that moon even on north pole?

Its pretty obvious & clear that.

See how the dumb haters & liarscumbags (shill followers) are giving me

GOOD!

And you know this how? Show some proof that something is "off" with the Moon.

Intentionally buggy? Nope. I had an issue with the sun-moon angular separation formula, but I've worked it out now. It had nothing to do with calculating the % of the moon's illumination or its appearance (location, apparent orientation) though.

What about it? At the north pole your altitude-azimuth view would effectively be like a polar aligned view, so you could hypothetically see the "horizontal moon" during new moons like this one (which was shot from a polar aligned perspective):

BUT it would naturally require you to do what Legault did in order to capture it, and you would at least need a safe separation of a few degrees between the moon and sun in the sky. It could hypothetically be done though, Legault proved it.

Wouldn't the youngest moon be just off centre during an eclipse?
