PHP\/Javascript\/HTML Moon Angle Tutorial<\/p><\/div>\n

Here is a tutorial that calculates Noon Moon Angles from Earth via the entry of Latitude and Longitude. The calculation of noon moon angles uses the concept of Sublunary Point, which is explained in the quote from Wikipedia below.<\/p>\n

The sublunary point (Latin sub-lunar, under the moon ‘, from Latin) is the one place on earth where the moon in exactly the zenith is. He is the point where the line connecting the centers of the Earth and Moon intersects the Earth’s surface. The point is a common auxiliary point to observe the Moon in the celestial mechanics and astronomical phenomenology , and in particular the theory of the tides , as well as the theory of eclipses .<\/p>\n

The calculation of the point corresponding to the determination of the geocentric coordinates of the Moon, it has the same longitude and latitude , as the moon astronomical length and width has – both are denoted by \u03c6 and \u03b2. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
