Tonight's Moon Phase ➔

​

Follow the Moon’s changing phases in real time with our Live Moon Phase Chart, showing its cycle from new to full and back again as it orbits Earth.

​

Each phase reveals different details on the Moon’s surface and plays a role in celestial events like eclipses, where the alignment of the Sun, Earth, and the Moon creates breathtaking sights. Understanding the lunar cycle can enhance viewing the Moon, whether you're tracking its position in the sky or exploring its features up close. Learn more about its unique characteristics on our Moon page and see how its phases shape the night sky.
