A beautiful day to start in the morning on the Good Friday Holiday here in Singapore. The beautiful waning gibbous moon is now clearly visible in the morning here making it a 'daytime' moon. By definition the Waning Gibbous moon phase happens when the lit-up part of the Moon shrinks from 99.9% to about 50.1%. It starts just after Full Moon and lasts until the Third Quarter Moon. Waning means that it is shrinking and getting smaller, while gibbous refers to the oval-to-round shape.

This moon pictured here was descending in the west direction and the sky was plain blue making the moon a floating 'white ball' . The moon was 75.7% illuminated and direction of setting was 245.43° WSW↑ . Moon altitude was 21.18° while distance from Earth was 366,137 km.

Can't wait to see the first Supermoon of 2021 which is expected to be visible here in Singapore on 27 April 2021.
