The edge of the moon day and night
After I made the astronomical calculations through the NASA page for the moon and knowing the values of the moon’s position angle, I took a picture of the April full moon (17/4/2022) because it is the full moon closest to the angle of the position of the moon, which will partially eclipse the sun(25/10/2022) from our sky..
I waited for the eclipse to take a picture of the edge of the moon and the dark mountains and match it with the similar full moon to show the image of the lunar day and night identical.
After preliminarily assessing NASA’s calculations for the moon’s positional angle, I photographed April’s full moon knowing it will be the closest angle as the one on the day of the partial eclipse.
I set up the equipment on the day of the eclipse hoping to capture the moon’s edge, with the contrast of the sun highlighting the moon’s mountains. I matched it with the April full moon to show how the positions are identical, and uncovering the minute details along the edge that aligned beautifully.
