Did You Know?
The synodic month (new moon to new moon) is 29.53 daysโlonger than the orbital period because Earth moves around the Sun.
In Bortle Class 1 skies, the naked eye can see stars down to magnitude ~6. A 100mm telescope reaches ~12.7 mag.
A full moon can reduce your limiting magnitude by ~2, washing out fainter stars. Best observing: new moon + dark sky.
