Description: This applet displays the
current phase of the moon and the time/date of the next
four major lunar phases. The current age of the moon, its
distance and apogee/perigee dates are also displayed. All
times displayed are in UT except for the clock which
displays the local time. Lunarphases is a good tool for
moon observers. Also a helper for those of you who are
influenced by the moon, just check out the full moon time
to prepare better. Thanks to Gary Nugent for this free
