Moon 5th October 2017

I'm a bit behind with this photo but it was the last time I saw the Moon - over 2 weeks ago!

2 days and 46 years since Luna 19 went into orbit around the Moon. It's a full moon now but if I had been standing here 46 years ago it would be a waning gibbous.

Now:
Time 23:00.
Distance 234,067 miles.
Full moon phase.

Altitude 32.3 degrees.

1971:

120 degrees SE compass point (azimuth).
Altitude 38.8 degrees.
