CURRENT MOON
We, at Moonsighting.com, calculate where the crescent sighting is possible for every lunar month. Visibility of the crescent moon is calculated using the criteria, developed after decades of research by Khalid Shaukat. Development of the criteria included several thousand authentic observations, collected over a period of 150 years in different locations of the world. These visibility calculations jive with the observations every month since 1993.
