Today I started creating a table to summarize my crescent moon observations. To get all of the information I want into it it has to be too wide to fit within the confines of this column so I have made a separate page for it. I backed out al of the observations for this year but still need to go back through the blog and back out last year’s observations.
While I was filling in the table of the length of each lunation I noticed that they change in a predictable manner so created a graph to show how they vary.
