If you hover the mouse over the degrees in brackets the actual direction of rise or set pops up, which saves having to work it out and gives you an idea of where to look if you have a horizon to see it actually rise. I've seen sunrises loads of times, but never a moonrise.
I also like the way the info at the top of the page constantly updates - moon distance, moon altitude, moon direction. It's almost like watching it move through the sky. (Should I be wearing an anorak, I wonder?)
Its huge, very bright and very clear.
Does anyone else think that the dark patches on the moon's surface are identical to the land masses on Earth. I would swear that Africa or South America are at the lower left of the moon.
