RECORD : THE NEW MOON CRESCENT - JULY 8 2013

Any use of one of these images other than strictly private must be subject to prior authorization from legault@astrophoto.fr

This image shows the tiny lunar crescent at the precise moment of the New Moon, in full daylight at 7h14min UTC on July 8 2013. It is the youngest possible crescent, the age of the Moon at this instant being exactly zero. Celestial north is up in the image, as well as the Sun. The irregularities and discontinuities are caused by the relief at the edge of the lunar disk (mountains, craters).

This New Moon marks the 2013 Muslim's Ramadan.
